®Urecon has been factory insulating pipe with polyurethane foam using the patented U.I.P. process since ®1973 in Saint-Lazare, Quebec and 1981 in the Calmar, Alberta facility. The U.I.P. system may be applied to
virtually any size and type of core pipe with or without heat trace conduit(s). A full range of outer jackets is available for the product line to suit almost every application.
From the Arctic Circle to Antarctica, Urecon is
the name synonymous with superior quality and
guaranteed void free pre-insulated piping
systems. Our systems are manufactured to
meet the most rigid quality standards required
for projects exposed to the extreme climates of
the far north. These identical stringent
standards are applied to the piping systems
produced for the more benign latitudes of the
Caribbean and those in between; thus insuring a
level of quality unsurpassed in the industry.
