Canada is the fifth largest oil producing country globally and offers a huge potential market for AIS’ range of passive fire protection and insulation systems – safety-critical products widely used in the oil and gas sector.
Managing director, Paul Stonebanks commented: “The link is already resulting in several new orders coming through, including one to supply insulation and metal products to an offshore oil platform in Newfoundland.
“We are also training the staff at Crosbie Group in survey and installation skills to ensure we can fully capitalise on the major interest being shown out there. However, our manufacturing will remain in the UK.”
AIS designs, manufactures and installs award-winning passive fire protection systems which provide up to 180 minutes of fire protection against the deadly spread of a hydrocarbon or jet fire.
As well as fire protection products, the company offers a comprehensive range of technical insulation products to combat issues such as noise, corrosion, weather and temperature extremes in order to protect assets, create safer work spaces and reduce operational costs.
