Roxtec, Greater Manchester, has been chosen to supply the Sadara petrochemical plant on Saudi Arabia’s east coast. Managing director Graham O’Hare said the company’s blast-proof cable and pipe seals are being used across the plant to help protect people and assets from a range of hazards, including fire and explosion.

“This is a great project win in the petrochemical sector,” he said. “Our seals are being used in sub-stations, motor control rooms, the utilities area, power rooms and the chlorine plant. We have also supplied air- and gas-tight seals for pressurised rooms.

“Roxtec’s multi-cable transit seals are a vital safety component in any integrated chemical plant. We have extensive experience in the process industry and petrochemical sector.”
