Installed on site or in our factory
Basalt tiles can be bedded and jointed in cement
or special bonding agents such as epoxy.
CBP Engineering can assist you in the technical
analysis to optimise the matching of mortars and
cements to meet the applications at your plant.
CBP Engineering also offers on site installation
services providing skilled labor and supervision.
CBP Engineering can fabricate steel chutes, hoppers
and bunkers and fit pre-cut tailored tiles in
our factory prior to delivery at your facility.
Automotive and Commercial use
The Automotive industry worldwide utilizes specially
designed water channelling basalt tiles for
their high usage performance skid pan?testing
tracks for trucks, vans and cars.
Across North America basalt tiles are also widely
used both commercially and privately due to
their decorative appearances, aesthetics,
durability and longevity.

Cast Basalt Tiles
- for abrasion, corrosion and low friction resistant applications
Cast Basalt Tiles
Cast Basalt is one of the Earth oldest and most natural materials.
The Basaltic Rock/Slag is combined with crystallizing
agents to form the various shapes needed for lining plant
equipment.
When cast it has two exceptional qualities:
1. Abrasive resistance, applied correctly, basalt tiles have
a wear life expectancy many times higher than that of traditional
linings.
2. Chemical resistance, Basalt tiles are highly resistant to
most chemicals and very effective as a chemical resistant
barrier.
For lining Chutes, bunkers, hoppers, drag chains and sluiceways
at fossil fuel power stations, Basalt has become the
world standard.
Basalt is an all around cost effective and adaptable lining
material that extends the life of equipment where affected by
erosion. Most basalt applications will have a 10-15 year life
before replacement.
Compared with chutes of mild steel or other
metal construction, where the steel suffers from
corrosion as well as abrasion, experience has
shown that basalt tiles would last at least 15
times the life of an unprotected chute.
Furthermore, as basalt wears it improves it
own coefficient of friction giving a smooth, non
stick finish, as the material passing over the basalt
gradually gives it a high polish.
In direct contrast to some other types of linings
that promote sticking of wet materials, friction is
reduced by the more use the Basalt gets.
Basalt can be cast to or cut to fit the most
difficult shapes and provides a cost effective solution
to many wear problems.
For almost a century cast basalt tiles have been successfully engineered and installed
worldwide to provide a long-lasting lining and enhancement to operational
life cycle for plant and equipment. CBP Engineering Corp. has successfully serviced
industries such as Power, Coal, Steel, Cement , Pulp & Paper & Mineral
Processing utilizing Cast Basalt to enhance and improve the operational life of
their plant.
