Specialist Maintenance, Upgrade & Repair Services

Sonomatic RAIS is proud to be at the forefront of driving innovation in rope access and specialist access systems for maintenance projects or campaigns. Being a holistic or agnostic access provider, we are recognised for providing the right access systems for the unique requirements of the project to drive safety, cost and time benefits to each specialist maintenance project we undertake.

Sonomatic RAIS provides conventional surface preparation for coatings which involves cleaning, degreasing, and roughening surfaces to ensure adhesion. Methods include abrasive blasting, solvent cleaning, and power tool cleaning. Inspection follows, assessing surface cleanliness and profile. Proper preparation enhances coating performance, durability, and overall asset protection across industries such as Oil and Gas, Petrochemicals,  Energy, Manufacturing or Infrastructure.

The Sonomatic RAIS, laser cleaning system clears away material from a surface by irradiating it with a laser beam. By absorbing the energy of the laser, the targeted material breaks apart and ablates or vaporises off the surface. By manipulating the laser, the amount of material removed can be controlled with precision, making laser cleaning equally suitable for rapid and deep rust removal as it is for removing only one thin layer of paint, without damaging the base coat.

Sonomatic RAIS provides a unique fabric maintenance service, from conventional surface preparation to our specialist laser cleaning. Our multi-disciplined teams carry out rope access application of coatings or composites including associated QA/QC. Maintaining the coating integrity of assets enhances corrosion protection, extends their lifespan, and ensures optimal performance, thereby minimising maintenance costs and environmental impact.

Sonomatic RAIS assist in managing corrosion under insulation which involves preventing or addressing corrosion beneath insulation. We assist in maintaining coating and insulation systems, through regular inspection and upkeep, protecting against corrosive elements and regulating temperatures, prolonging equipment life, reducing downtime, and enhancing operational efficiency. This proactive approach aligns with environmental regulations, ensuring a sustainable and reliable industrial infrastructure.

Sonomatic RAIS provide high-mobility, IRATA rope access teams to support and deliver emergency response and confined space entry (CSE) in support of maintenance projects or major shutdowns and turnarounds. Our people hold qualifications such as IRATA rope access, confined space entry, gas test atmosphere, long line breathing apparatus (BA) and advanced first aid certification.
