Roeslein to Change Name of Fabrication Division in Red Bud, IL

Applying Modularization, Unitization, and Preassembly to the Nuclear Power Industry
Although Roeslein & Associates, Inc. is a household name in the canmaking industry, it is less known within the markets to which it is new: pharmaceutical, oil and gas, refinery, power, chemical and petrochemical. Roeslein is earning a reputation for reduced start-up times and improved efficiencies using its signature approach, Modularization, Unitization and Preassembly. One example of this type of success is Roeslein’s development of an automated sump pump system for an East Coast nuclear facility in 2012.
Diversifying Into the Oil & Gas Industry
Roeslein & Associates’ Modularized, Unitized, and Preassembled systems have been the implementation strategy of choice in the canmaking industry for decades. More recently, Roeslein has applied its reputation for on-time service and process fabrication expertise to a diverse range of other process industries. Roeslein now successfully employs its Modularized, Unitized, and Preassembled approach for clients in the oil & gas, refinery, petrochemical, power, chemical and pharmaceutical industries in addition to canmaking clients. As it has gained recognition within these new markets, clients have discovered that its signature methodology is customizable to their individual needs. In the oil and gas industry key personnel know all too well how moving work from the field to the controlled environment of a facility can significantly impact project scheduling and costs. For these companies, Roeslein offers extensive engineering expertise in addition to its fabrication capabilities.
Leading the Canmaking Industry
For more than two decades, the experienced team of professionals at Roeslein & Associates has earned a global reputation for exceptional, on-time service and unparalleled quality among aluminum beverage container manufacturers. Roeslein’s Modularized, Unitized, and Preassembled systems are the standard within the canmaking industry. More recently, Roeslein has put that expertise and reputation to work in other industries including oil and gas, refinery, petrochemical, power, chemical and pharmaceutical.
Roeslein Completes Project with Major Refinery; Continues Expansion in Petroleum Industry
Roeslein has remained at the forefront of the latest advances in modularized approaches. Exemplary of its success, in 2012 Roeslein was selected by a major Midwest refinery to supply 14 separate fully integrated modules containing complex process pipe, valve, and instrumentation arrangements. Integrating its modules into a refinery-wide effort to upgrade fired process heater control and safety systems, the refinery benefitted from Roeslein’s decades of experience improving safety and quality while reducing project costs and meeting timelines through its proven methodology.
Increase Line Efficiency and Safety with Roeslein’s Fully Integrated UVBCs
Ultra violet bottom coating (UVBC) is becoming increasingly popular in today’s modern D&I canmaking processes as its benefits for plant efficiency and productivity become more widely known. Always motivated by innovation and improvement, Roeslein & Associates designs and fabricates a UVBC system component which provides all of these benefits in an integrated module that also improves plant safety.
