For the production of insulating foam for pipelines, Keil Anlagenbau has been awarded the contract to supply a storage system for pentane including safety equipment. The pentane will be used for the production of PU foam for the insulation of an oil pipeline from Uganda to the coast of Tanzania.

The client originated in 2016 from the idea of the founder, who previously worked in the field of asbestos board disposal, to recycle insulation boards and reprocess them into new boards, according to the principles of Cradle to Cradle.

Keil Anlagenbau was able to complete a tank farm for the expansion of a production site in Baden-Würtemberg at the beginning of the year.

The company has been producing high-quality wheels and castors "Made in Germany" since the 1950s. With its numerous employees, the company sells its high-quality, durable and maintenance-free wheels and castors worldwide.

Often, tank tops and the pipes are porous, corroded and full of holes. A temporary repair with liquid metal filler often does not lead to the desired result. Together with our partner, we offer the renovation of your dome shaft as a long-term solution which saves you from a time-consuming and cost-intensive complete tank replacement.

Everyone is talking about the Paris Agreement on climate protection.

It aims to limit the average temperature increase to 2 °C, preferably 1.5 °C. For industrial companies, production without CO2 emissions is not possible. For this reason, climate neutrality must be the goal for industry. According to the principle of climate neutrality, as much CO2 must be bound as was previously emitted. It is therefore not only necessary to reduce CO2 emissions, but also to find ways to bind the emitted CO2 again, for example by reforesting forests or developing solutions for recycling materials.

The current issue 03/2023 of Kunststoffe Magazin reports on the innovative recycling concept of Keil Anlagenbau. It is about the resource-saving recycling of production residues from the manufacture of flexible slabstock foams.

The European Coatings Show, the world's leading trade fair for the coatings industry, will take place from 28-30 March 2023.

International experts and key players from the coatings world will network at the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre. Every two years, they exchange information on the latest developments in paints, coatings and sealants over three days and benefit from information and knowledge as well as genuine encounters and networking.

In recent years, the demand for heat pumps as an alternative form of heating has been increasing strongly in Europe, especially in private households. It is expected that up to 5 million heat pumps will be installed annually in private households in the 2030s.

With the increase in demand for heat pumps, not only in private households but also in industry and the public sector, production capacity is also increasing to meet demand in Europe and worldwide. While only 3.7 million heat pumps were produced in Europe in 2009, 11.6 million units could be produced in 2019. This is an increase of 68 %, which is predicted to accelerate even further in the years to come.

This year Keil Anlagenbau celebrates its 50th anniversary. In the course of time, the company has developed from a one-man central heating and ventilation master craftsman's business to a specialised process engineering company that operates internationally.

Together with its founder Hans-Jürgen Keil, we want to look back into the company's past and review the most important milestones.

At the beginning of July, the order for the construction of a mixing room was completed by Keil's "wet run".

A global manufacturer in the thin-film coating sector had commissioned Keil Anlagenbau 2021 to build a new mixing room to expand production.
