The Fertilizer Industry processes many chemicals which can attack carbon or stainless steel material. Equipment, specifically Reactor vessels, is typically a place for Glass-lined technology.In the Reactors, chemicals are mixed under heat and pressure to promote a chemical reaction, Some types of enamel lining can deteoriate under particulary arduous conditions, therefore it is important to select the correct technology for the application.SGL's advanced technology has been developed in conjunction with Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute and is specifically suited for use in the Fertilizer Industry.

SGL are a very suitable supply partner for the Chemical Industry as they are experienced at supplying all types of Glass-lined products which extend equipment life.
Glass-lined products are ideal to protect equipment, such as large vessels, storage tanks and pipework from the chemically agressive compounds and process media used in this industry sector. However care must be taken to ensure the correct compatibility of the glass-lining. SGL's experienced application engineers and technical chemical compatibility database can assist in this process.

The Food Industry employs hygienically designed equipment throughout the process line, to avoid contamination into the human food chain. This equipment must be able to withstand both high temperature cooking and steam cleaning during batch processing.
Often large Agitators are employed to mix the ingredients and Glass-Lined equipment is a economical alternate to stainless steel construction.
SGL's glass-lined technology can offer superior equipment performance in such applications. See our product range for further information.
