Chemical Hose

Altec have specialist experience in the Extrusion of custom tubes and Hose for the chemical industry. We have an extensive database of materials and their suitability in various environments and for exposure to many chemicals. We also have an extensive library of tube and Hose samples which are invaluable for assisting with product design and material selection.

Altec have over 30 years experience in manufacturing Plastic & Rubber Extrusions, Extruded Profiles and Tubing. We're quite rightfully proud of our reputation for consistently meeting the needs of customers over that time. Because we've remained small and focussed we've also remained more attentitive, more cost effective and more responsive than larger manufacturers.
