KAEFER has established itself at the cutting edge of corrosion under insulation (CUI) innovation through our expert NDT and Inspection Services.

KAEFER is an established provider of conventional, advanced and specialist Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) services to the oil and gas, energy, petrochemical, renewables and utilities sectors covering onshore and offshore facilities.
