Fiberglass Buildings and Shelters
Shelter Works fiberglass buildings are fully customizable to meet the needs of protecting oil and natural gas utility equipment.
Maintenance-Free, Insulated Fiberglass Shelters that do not Corrode, Rot, Rust, or Decay!
The fiberglass shelters are insulated, maintenance-free, corrosion-resistant, and do not rust, rot, or decay. They are used in various applications within the industry, such as:
- Natural Gas Storage
- Wellheads
- City Gate Gas Stations
- Natural Gas Distribution & Transmission
- Instrumentation/SCADA Systems
- Pressure Regulating Stations
- Meter Stations
- Gas Odorizer Buildings
- Power Generation Equipment
The company offers a 25-year warranty on its fiberglass buildings and uses an exclusive process to produce a more rigid and durable product with its FiberBeam technology. This procedure is a proprietary lamination process that melds the inner and outer skins with integrated fiberglass I-beams. These I-beams are placed 12″ apart throughout the enclosure’s walls, doors, and roofs to deliver a building equally as strong as one made of steel. The net result is that the fiberglass building can now withstand higher stresses without bowing or buckling.
