Ceramic Structured Packing

Manufactured in corrosion resistant ceramics, Ceramic Structured Packing is an economical alternative to exotic metals and engineered plastics, and provides excellent service life in most corrosive applications.


our proprietary ceramic structured packing is constructed of corrugated sheets of ceramic. The angle of inclination of the corrugations of adjacent sheets is reversed with respect to the vertical column axis, forming mixing cells at every point where the corrugation intersect. This promotes intimate mixing and radial distribution of the liquid and gas streams. Each subsequent element is rotated about the column axis so that the sheets of one element are opposed to the sheets of the elements above and below. In passing through each element, gas and liquid are thoroughly mixed in the direction parallel to the plane of the sheets. By rotating subsequent elements, excellent mixing and spreading, both side to side and front to back are obtained over the entire cross section of the tower. The flow characteristics developed by the structured geometrical arrangement creates high effective surface area resulting in good efficiency as compared to other mass transfer devices. Improved hydraulic performance of our structured packing result from the corrugated sheets being vertically oriented, eliminating any horizontal surfaces which create resistance to fluid flow. As a result, towers packed with our structured packing have a very low pressure drop and a corresponding higher capacity.


Our structured packing system stands up to the toughest operating environments whether applying the technology to retrofits, upgrades or new construction, our professionals draw on an accumulated body of knowledge that nobody else can offer: more installations, more years of experience, more technical expertise than any other supplier.


The unique features of our ceramic structured packing system provide significant benefits over traditional random packing

  • Geometric Design- Effectively minimizes channeling and radically distributes gas and liquid uniformly over the tower cross section.
  • Rigid Construction- Significantly less breakage and fouling of downstream equipment normally associated with random ceramic packing.
  • Natural Wettability- Improve film formation for high surface tension aqueous liquids enhance efficiency.
  • Higher Capacity- Increase flow to existing towers or reduce diameters of new tower designs.
  • Lower Pressure Drop- Lower energy costs without sacrificing capacity
