Belzona has opened its fifth SuperWrap II Training Centre in Europe in partnership with its Dutch distributor, Perspect Benelux.
Belzona announced the opening of a new SuperWrap II Training Centre in The Netherlands. The opening of the new certified Belzona SuperWrap II Training Centre will enable Belzona’s distributor Perspect Benelux to share its expertise with project leaders and maintenance colleagues.
“After an intensive course at Belzona’s training facility in Harrogate, I’m glad to share my knowledge on how to apply the Belzona SuperWrap II system as a fully certified trainer. We are working very hard to optimise our facility in Dordrecht, Netherlands, to receive interested parties on how to apply Belzona SuperWrap II in certified conditions”, said André van der Graaf, Product Manager at Perspect Benelux, responsible for training at the facility.
In addition to the new centre in the Netherlands, SuperWrap II Supervisor and Installer Training is available at Beltech Solutions AS (Norway), Alliatech (France), Rodator (Spain) and B.S. Italia (Italy). An extensive range of courses is also offered at Belzona’s Corporate Headquarters in Harrogate (UK), Miami (USA), Ontario (Canada), Chonburi (Thailand) and Nanjing (China). The company also recently opened its first training facility at AESSEAL, South Africa.
“The opening of Belzona’s SuperWrap II Training Centres, which are an extension of Belzona Corporate training, will help ensure that Installer and Supervisor training is available in the region to ultimately grow the Belzona SuperWrap II system while offering high end training and technical support”, said Ian Wade, Belzona’s Technical Services Manager.
What is SuperWrap II
SuperWrap II is a composite pipe and tank repair system, primarily used on damaged pipes and tank walls. The system comprises of a fluid-grade epoxy resin, a reinforcement sheet based on fibre glass and carbon fibre, and a release film to consolidate repairs.
The pipe repair kit is available in three enhanced resins for application at different service temperatures, meaning that the solution can withstand temperatures between -60°C (-76 °F) and 150°C (302°F) once cured.
