Overview
In the challenging environment of a mine in Leinster, our focus was on safeguarding structural HV transformers from both fire and blast incidents. The installation of Promat’s DURASTEEL served as a robust shield against potential threats. Additionally, CAFCO FENDOLITE MII application to steel columns further fortified the protective measures.
