TITAN Metal Fabricators designs and fabricates highly corrosion resistant equipment for the chemical, petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries. Our expertise lies in our reputation and proven ability to design and fabricate cost effective heat exchangers using the reactive metals tantalum, zirconium, niobium, titanium and the high nickel alloys such as Hastelloy heat exchangers. Tantalum heat exchangers, zirconium heat exchanger and titanium heat exchangers made from these metals can be used with extremely corrosive fluids and last for decades if designed and fabricated correctly. You need the confidence that your heat exchanger is not going to have problems. We have the experience to make sure everything comes together — budget, design, fabrication and schedule — to yield the most trouble-free installation possible.
