Industries Served
Power Generation
Since 1986 TEP has been servicing utility power plants and cogeneration facilities. We have completed numerous removable insulation blankets for steam turbines, gas turbines, and all specialized equipment in this industry. From the largest complete new plant to a small outage we have the expertise and capability to handle your project.
Petroleum / Refineries
In the petroleum / refinery market, TEP has supplied removable insulation blankets for new refineries in Venezuela, gas plants in WY, offshore oil platforms off the coast of CA, crude oil pipeline pumping stations through the heartland of the United States, and numerous projects in between. We can meet your removable insulation cover needs on time and on budget
Chemical
TEP services the special needs of various types of chemical and process facilities. We have experience recommending the correct component materials based on the operating environment, and experience of fabricating insulation blankets that will last in these harsh operating environments.
Ethanol / Bio-diesel
TEP has been the leading supplier of removable insulation blankets in this fast growing ethanol industry. We offer the service of labeling the product for the insulation contactors that act as our distributors. Through the use of our specialized design software, nesting programs to minimize material waste, and cad-cam cutting machines to cut fabric and insulation, we can fabricate large removable insulation cover orders much more cost-effectively, than if the project were to be handled on site.
Plastic Injection / Molding
TEP supplies insulation blankets for the various machines used in this industry. Removable covers over the heating bands on these machines will reduce energy cost, heat up and cycle times. A 6 month or less return on investment is common in this application.
Aerospace
TEP was proud to be a team-member in the Stealth fighter and bomber program. We have supplied specialized insulation blankets for components used in the manufacture of solar panels on the Mars rover, and other applications in the composite industry.
Military
TEP fabricates components for equipment aboard nuclear submarines. With computerized cad cam cutting accuracy to 2/100 of an inch, we have the ability to exactly reproduce patterns, and can meet the requirements of these specialized applications.
Engine Exhaust
TEP fabricates high temperature “exhaust-wrap” blankets for a large number of diesel engine exhaust piping, turbo chargers, and catalytic converters. Typical applications are for package cogeneration units, standby generators, engine exhaust systems for mass transit, marine, mining, forestry, and agriculture.
Solar Generation
TEP fabricates both flexible “solar-wrap” insulation blankets and aluminum-jacketed expansion joints for this growing “green-industry” application. We are pleased to be part of this market and feel it fits well with our motto of “A better tomorrow through conservation today”.
