Fabrication

Our custom fabrication facilities provide access to allow process vessels, skids and equipment to be shipped around the sub-continent and further afield. All proprietary components can be manufactured in-house to limit disclosure. In addition, our facilities allow us to maintain a strong emphasis on Quality Assurance, and facilitate expediting during emergencies and plant turnarounds.

Our Axton arm manufactures a complete range of exchangers, crystallizers, pressure vessels, towers and tanks. Axton-Ellett is an operating division of NORAM specializing in the fabrication of high performance equipment, including nickel alloys, titanium, zirconium and stainless steels.
