Launders and other flumes are typically subjected to highly abrasive and corrosive conditions due to the high-speed flow of water borne solids. They frequently require patching or replacement.
NXT Group can abrasive blast and line launders within short shutdown periods. This is a very cost-effective approach to launder maintenance.
