Insulation & refractory supply for Houston & the Gulf Coast

The Houston Ship Channel and the Texas–Louisiana Gulf Coast hold the largest concentration of refining and petrochemical capacity in the world, from Baytown and Pasadena to Freeport and Port Arthur, plus several LNG export terminals. Contractors here specify to ASTM (C547, C533, C552, C612) and typically ask for data sheets and test certificates with every lot. Port Houston’s Barbours Cut and Bayport terminals handle containerised imports.
