What are the advantages of Élastomont repair?

The repair of industrial rubber linings is a highly effective solution when the equipment retains sufficient structural integrity. At Élastomont, our specialized repairs allow us to extend the lifespan of equipment while maintaining a level of performance comparable to the original lining, when the technical conditions are met.

Our clients particularly benefit from:

Up to 70% savings compared to a complete lining replacement
Significant reduction in production shutdowns, thanks to fast and targeted interventions
High durability, with performance that can be equivalent to the original lining
Sustainable and responsible approach, limiting industrial waste and maximizing the value of existing assets

Each repair is preceded by a rigorous technical evaluation to ensure that the proposed solution is sealed, durable, and cost-effective in the long term.

When to favor repair or replacement of a rubber lining?

Rubber lining repair is generally recommended when damage is localized, representing less than 30% of the surface area, the surrounding lining remains adherent and in good condition, and the base structure of the equipment is sound. This approach is particularly advantageous when the equipment still has several years of useful life remaining and operating conditions are controlled.
Conversely, complete replacement of the rubber lining becomes the preferred solution when damage covers more than 50% of the surface, when the lining is worn or degraded across the board, or when failures are recurrent or too costly to correct. In these situations, replacement with new material ensures the long-term watertightness, safety, compliance, and durability of the equipment.

Our Proven Repair Methods

Three Elastomont technicians, equipped with respirator masks and hard hats, inspect the dark interior of an industrial tank. Under the illumination of work lights, they are evaluating the condition of the rubber lining and identifying areas needing repair, which they have marked with numbered chalk squares on the floor and walls."

1. Professional Evaluation

Before any repair, our technicians evaluate:

The actual extent of the damage
The condition of the surrounding lining
The cause of the failure
The feasibility and cost-benefit of the repair

2. Meticulous Preparation

Cleaning and degreasing of surfaces
Clean cutting of damaged areas
Mechanical preparation for optimal adhesion
Application of appropriate primers and adhesives

3. Advanced Repair Techniques

Cold vulcanization: for quick repairs without heat
Hot vulcanization: for complete fusion with the existing lining
Application of patches: pre-vulcanized rubber for emergency repairs
Layer-by-layer reconstruction: for heavily damaged areas

4. Rigorous Quality Control
