Invented, engineered & patented the first FRP pipe repair system Established our manufacturing facilities in 1982 & will be celebrating our 30 th anniversary in 2012 Headquartered in Lake Park, FL Custom manufacturer of structural and pressure retaining composite repair systems Holder of multiple patents on structural repair and reinforcement composite solutions ISO 9001 Certified Company Certified and Licensed Engineering Firm with Professional Engineer on Staff Who is NRI?
5
What are Composite Repairs? Praised for their high strength, light weight, low profile, and easy applications versus other typical repair methods Typically non-metallic fibers (fiberglass, carbon fiber, Kevlar, etc.) saturated with an adhesive matrix material (urethane, epoxy, vinyl ester, etc.) Composite – a combination of two or more materials differing in form or composition, retaining their individual identities, while acting in concert
6
Composite repairs are used for a wide variety of industrial and marine applications How are NRI Products Used? NRI’s composite repair systems are in use all over the world by a wide variety of industries and companies Typically NRI composites are used for the repair of corroded or mechanically damaged pipes, vessels, tanks, columns, beams, or ships by external wrapping or patching

Every batch can be tensile tested for quality with its own certified, validated strength tests to ensure quality with the shipment. In house engineering (verified by third party) enables NRI to give you the customer assurance that the material you are receiving is as strong as we say it is. ISO 9001 certified company ensures a quality and traceable product from start to finish.
