Fireproofing for the Nuclear Industry

The LES URENCO USA facility just outside Eunice, New Mexico, is the only one of its kind in North America. Now under construction, this gas centrifuge uranium enrichment plant is critical to the future of our country’s energy needs, because it will give the United States a domestic source of enriched uranium for our nuclear power plants. At full capacity, URENCO USA will produce enough enriched uranium to power approximately 10 percent of America’s electricity usage.

AFI features Dendamix: the only green product used on a nuclear site.

For their fireproofing needs, LES turned to American Fireproofing.

AFI expands the scope of our services by providing complete fire resistive systems for the nuclear industry:
>  Fire stopping            >  Fireproofing of structural steel            >  Industrial Coatings
For power generation, fuel reprocessing, waste treatment, medical, scientific research and the many other industries that depend on nuclear energy, we have the resources and engineering capabilities for your construction project.

Our work is exacting to the strictest government standards. AFI uses products that are Nuclear Approved Commercial-Grade Dedicated. Nuclear Approved Commercial-Grade Dedication is an acceptance process that the commercial-grade item (CGI) will perform its intended safety function and is thus deemed equivalent to an item designed and manufactured under a 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, quality assurance program, verified by inspections, tests, or analyses by a third-party dedicating entity.

And you can always expect the renowned AFI focus on budget, schedule and 100 percent satisfaction.

Follow the lead set by LES, and take your nuclear fireproofing to the cutting edge with AFI.
