Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) remains one of the most costly and persistent threats to industrial infrastructure. With 60% of insulation in service over 10 years harboring corrosion-inducing moisture, traditional coatings often fall short—failing to withstand the harsh realities of both pre-service and in-service environments. The Heat-Flex® CUI-mitigation portfolio offers next-generation solutions engineered to deliver long-term, field-proven protection.
