The BEWI Universal Protector represents a whole new way of solving time waste, HSEQ issues and contributing to a sustainable world. 

The need for change

The oil and gas industry uses a vast amount of thread protectors that safeguard pipes during transportation and storage.

The wide range of pipes, in a multitude of dimensions and threading, require an equally broad selection of protectors. In turn, this requires large storage areas and entails logistical challenges. The mounting of the threaded protectors is time-consuming and often done in high-risk zones. 

Most of these protectors are used once and then discarded, representing thousands of tons of plastic, each year.

The need for change

The oil and gas industry uses a vast amount of thread protectors that safeguard pipes during transportation and storage.

The wide range of pipes require different dimensions of thread protectors, which in turn require large storage spaces and entail other logistical challenges. The mounting of the threaded protectors is time consuming and is often done in high-risk zones on the rig that can pose dangers to workers.

Most of these protectors are discarded after one use, representing a total of 100 thousands of tons plastic each year.
