Flexitallic has launched INTEGRA Technologies UK as its dedicated field service and maintenance division, completing its transition to a full end-to-end joint integrity provider.

The move combines Flexitallic’s sealing design and manufacturing expertise, its cloud-based joint management platform, Flexlogics® – which delivers full joint traceability by unifying calculations, training, asset management and workflows – with onsite engineering support, as part of a single integrated solution.

Backed by more than 30 years of bolted joint integrity experience across North America, INTEGRA Technologies UK will support multiple sectors, delivering specialised on-site bolting, machining, integrity testing and emissions-reduction solutions for high-risk, high-value industrial assets.

It has created a dedicated operational area at Flexitallic UK’s Ellesmere Port facility, which is set to open in January 2026. The company has already invested £750,000 in bolt tensioning and torquing tooling and is recruiting a specialist engineering team.

Initial services include site and joint inspection, integrity management, bolt tensioning and torquing, with other services to follow, including flange facing and pipe cutting.

Bolted joint failure risk environmental harm, production losses and unplanned shutdowns. Integra’s total joint integrity approach ensures joints are correctly engineered, accurately installed and maintained to perform effectively for their full operational lifetime. It also supports maintenance, shutdowns, turnarounds and emergency call outs.

Integra’s expertise, combined with Flexitallic’s global engineering capability, will support industries including chemical processing, oil and gas, petrochemicals, refining, LNG, hydrogen, fuel cells, power generation, nuclear, aviation, transportation and aerospace.

Chuck Overby, President of INTEGRA Technologies, said: “Bringing 30 years of experience into this new site strengthens our ability to deliver best-in-class flange inspection and joint management services. Being closer to our customers means better turnaround times and greater peace of mind on critical operations.”
