Water, Oil and Gas

The physical and mechanical properties of Geothane polyurethane, and especially the material’s excellent abrasion and chemical resistance, makes it the ideal material for all types of products used in the water, oil and gas industrial environment.

Over the past 35 years, Mercol Polymers has worked in partnership with its major clients within these industries to obtain a wealth of specialist knowledge and experience using polyurethane for this type of application. This experience has enabled the Company to become a market leader in the design and manufacture of a diverse range of products, such as polyurethane floats and non-return valve spheres for the pump industry, pipeline pig cups and spheres up to 1500mm diameter, weighing up to 750 kilos, for both the oil and gas industries.

The Company also specialise in the production of rigid integral skin polyurethane foam floats and valves for the water industry. The Geothane rigid foam system produces a very high, yet hard, foam product with a strong hard wearing skin.

A full range of spheres can be manufactured either as inflatable, or with a full range of solid cores, such as Steel, Iron, Aluminium, Hollow Foam or Solid Polyurethane, therefore providing the end-user with a product that is hard wearing and of the correct dimension and weight.
