Flexitallic has launched INTEGRA Technologies UK as its dedicated field service and maintenance division, marking the completion of its transition to a full end-to-end joint integrity provider.

The move brings together Flexitallic’s sealing design and manufacturing expertise with its cloud-based joint management platform, Flexlogics®. The platform delivers full joint traceability by unifying calculations, training, asset management and workflows. Combined with on-site engineering support, the offering provides a single, fully integrated solution.

Backed by more than 30 years of bolted joint integrity experience across North America, INTEGRA Technologies UK will support multiple sectors, delivering specialised on-site bolting, machining, integrity testing and emissions-reduction solutions for high-risk, high-value industrial assets.

The company has created a dedicated operational area at Flexitallic UK’s Ellesmere Port facility. It has already invested £750,000 in bolt tensioning and torquing tooling and is recruiting a specialist engineering team.

Initial services include site and joint inspection, integrity management, bolt tensioning and torquing. Further capabilities, including flange facing and pipe cutting, will follow.

Bolted joint failures risk environmental harm, production losses and unplanned shutdowns. Integra’s total joint integrity approach ensures joints are correctly engineered, accurately installed and maintained to perform effectively throughout their operational lifetime. It also supports maintenance, shutdowns, turnarounds and emergency call-outs.

Integra’s expertise, combined with Flexitallic’s global engineering capability, will support industries including chemical processing, oil and gas, petrochemicals, refining, LNG, hydrogen, fuel cells, power generation, nuclear, aviation, transportation and aerospace.

Chuck Overby, President of INTEGRA Technologies, said:
“Bringing 30 years of experience into this new site strengthens our ability to deliver best-in-class flange inspection and joint management services. Being closer to our customers means better turnaround times and greater peace of mind on critical operations.”
