ACID RESISTANT TILES
Our Acid proof tiles, Acid alkali resistant tiles, Chemical resistant tiles are fully vitrified tiles which are manufactured using special non ferrous clay, processed at extremely high temperatures this process causes the raw materials to fuse and form a compact mass with an extremely low water absorption of less than 0.5% resulting in the formation of a very strong body with a flexural strength of 38 N/mm2, solid through color fade proof with a very hard surface Mohs hardness of 7.
The acid resistant tiles come in a range of sizes and thicknesses ranging from 8-25mm. Our acid proof tiles meet stringent specification norms of IS 4457:2007 and relevant ASTM/DIN standards which ensure excellent performance in Acid/Alkali/Chemical (expect Hydrofluoric acid and its derivatives).

ACID RESISTANT BRICKS
We are the largest supplier of high quality acid resistant bricks, acid proof bricks, chemical resistant brick, anti acid bricks, anti abrasion bricks, acid alkali resistant bricks. We are exporting all over the world. Our acid resistant bricks are used for masonry constructions and floorings subject to acid attack, lining of chambers and towers in chemical plants, lining of sewers carrying industrial effluents and to prevent deterioration of the surface by acids except hydrofluoric acid and perchloric acids.
Acid resistant bricks are made of raw materials, such as clay of suitable composition with low lime and iron content, feldspar, flint or sand and vitrified at high temperatures in ceramic kilns. Our bricks are normally installed with chemical resistant mortars. They are available in different sizes and shapes bedded and jointed with acid proof cements. The cements used are depending on the chemical condition and temperature up to its specific limitations. We manufacture as per relevant IS/ASTM standards.

Vinyl Ester cement, mortars is used in the construction of industrial floors, sumps, storage tanks, vessels and bleach towers in chemical processing, food and beverage plants, dairies, laboratories, textile, steel and pulp& paper mills.
​
SYNTHETIC RESIN CEMENT
These are a new class of resin cements with versatile and resistant to a wide range of chemicals. They are also popular owing to their rapid setting characteristics which make them preferred cements when time is a constraint or limited in a project or a maintenance job.
​
PHENOLIC RESIN CEMENT
Phenacin resin cement are the best acid resisting cement among resin cements including for high temperature service conditions. It is widely used in chemical, fertilizer and dye stuff industry.
​
SULPHER CEMENT
Sulphur cements are a single component,easy to use acid proof cement. Unlike other cements, it is applied in molten condition it does not require curing time. Hence they are more suited for maintenance jobs. They are extensively used in electrical insulators for fixing metallic parts on ceramics. They are also used in acid resistant masonry.
​

​
RUBBER LININGS
The principal benefits of rubber lining are its excellent resistance to corrosive and abrasive chemicals and materials, e.g. acids, alkalis, salt water, slurries, sand, shot blast media, crushed rock etc. In addition rubber linings provide other benefits including noise and vibration reduction,electrical and thermal insulation and product protection.The rubber can be applied as either unvulcanised material which is then vulcanised and hot bonded – usually in a steam autoclave; or as pre vulcanised material which is cold bonded using two part adhesives. The fully bonded lining provides a durable and resilient protective rubber coating that will withstand very aggressive process conditions and applications.
