Ship To Shore Hose Lightweight Chemical Resistant Durable Easy Handling
Description
Composite STS Hoses are lightweight yet durable, designed for transferring petroleum, chemicals, and LNG. Unlike rubber hoses, they are built with multiple layers of thermoplastic films and fabric reinforcements, offering excellent flexibility without sacrificing pressure resistance.
Case Study: Rotterdam Chemical Terminal
A major chemical terminal struggled with frequent hose replacements due to chemical incompatibility. After switching to Composite STS Hoses, the replacement cycle doubled from 2 years to 4 years. Maintenance costs dropped by 45%, while loading efficiency improved because crews could handle lighter hoses with less manpower.

Features
Multi Layer Composite Wall
Thermoplastic films provide chemical resistance, while reinforcement fabrics offer structural integrity.
Value: Withstands aggressive solvents that degrade traditional rubber hoses.
Lightweight Construction
30–40% lighter than rubber hoses, reducing crew fatigue and crane load.
Example: A 10m hose can be lifted by two operators instead of requiring machinery.
Vacuum Resistance
Designed to prevent collapse during suction operations, making it suitable for loading/unloading.
Advantage: Ensures reliable flow even when pressure fluctuates.
Longer Chemical Compatibility
Tested against 800+ chemicals, ensuring broad application.
Comparison: Outperforms rubber hoses that often fail when exposed to strong solvents.
Applications
