IPI's equipment refurbishing program, located in Rockwell City, offers Iowa organizations a cost effective method to keep equipment in use longer while also allowing for improved reliability and safety. IPI's skilled incarcerated workers can refurbish a variety of types of equipment; from simple to complex projects, IPI will bring your outdated equipment back to life with a like-new condition.
Our capabilities include:
- Sandblasting
- Painting
- Epoxy protective coatings
- Small sheet metal repairs
- Large metal reconstruction
- Mechanical repairs
- Parts replacement
Our wash bays, curing ovens and powder-coat rooms are large enough to accommodate equipment of all sizes. The types of equipment IPI has refurbished include:
- Snow plows
- Dump trucks
- Signal trailers
- Trailers
- Truck beds
Both the environment and your budget benefit from equipment refurbishing. Not only is the cost of equipment refurbishing often substantially less than replacing with new equipment, but the existing equipment also stays in use for years to come and out of Iowa's scrap yards.
