- Supplied and installed, within a contract specified timeline, over 2 miles of copper piping to supply oxygen and shield gas for a customer in San Angelo, Tx that builds wind towers;
- Designed, and installed a new vacuum jacketed piping system to feed liquid freezers for Texas A&M’s research facility in the Houston Med Center Area;
- Installed and provided “service call” type services, on bulk liquid tanks, for Airgas SW; and
- Sold and installed tanks to the end user directly from our Houston facility.
These only make up a few of the diverse projects that we have successfully provided to the cryogenic industry through the years. No project is too big or too small. As a company we supply the industry with well-trained employees to provide you with high quality systems or services at a superior level. We carry full insurance available upon request. Our field service employees carry a minimum HASC Basic plus safety training.
