GTI's Patented Permanent Repair Technology: A Better Way to Repair Glasslined Equipment
When glasslined equipment is damaged, plant managers often face a difficult decision: continue operating with temporary repairs or replace expensive equipment altogether.
Glasslined Technologies developed a better solution.
Our patented permanent repair technology restores damaged glasslined equipment with long-lasting results, helping facilities reduce downtime, extend equipment life, and avoid unnecessary replacement costs. And because our technology is mobile, that expertise can go wherever it’s needed.
Recently, the GTI Mobile Induction System traveled 1,700 miles to Northern Quebec, along the banks of the St. Lawrence River, to perform repairs on a system onsite. To put that distance into perspective, Costa Rica is approximately 1,672 miles away. The project required transporting not only the induction system itself, but also the necessary support equipment to successfully complete the repair.
Whether the job is across the region or more than a thousand miles away, GTI’s mobile capabilities allow us to bring permanent glasslined repair technology directly to the equipment—helping facilities avoid the added time, cost, and logistical challenges of replacement.

Why Traditional Repairs Fall Short
Many conventional repair methods are designed to get equipment back into operation quickly—but not necessarily permanently.
Temporary repairs can:
Require repeat maintenance
Increase downtime
Add long-term costs
Introduce operational uncertainty
Facilities need solutions they can trust.
GTI’s mobile glass repair system set up on-site for permanent repair of the reactor.
