The strength of DIABON / Karbate graphite process equipment lies in its corrosion resistance against acids, alkalis, and aggressive media. DIABON / Karbate impervious graphite and LICUFLON PTFE lined equipment can be used for many different processes in the chemical, fertilizer, steel, mining, environmental and fine/pharmaceutical industries. Our expertise in the field of graphite production, customer processes and engineering design yields equipment and systems from which you, the customer, benefit.
