SANDY PATERSON | OWNER
Sanford (Sandy) Paterson’s passion for industrial application of titanium started in the 1960’s when he developed anode basket to the electro-form nickel heat shields for the early space capsules. He further extended that experience to De Nora chlorine cells, Hooker Chemical chlorine dioxide generators, heat exchanger for off-shore oil platforms, TPA plants and water desalinization.
In the mid-1970’s while the use of titanium metal was still being explored, pipe suppliers rarely carried pipe bigger than 4″ diameter. So Sandy developed a proprietary line of welded titanium pipe called Ti-Code pipes to give the chemical processing industry new reliable alternatives. Till this day, Sandy continues to supply major fabricated titanium pipe projects to the off-shore oil & gas industry, pulp & paper mills, desalination plants and major chemical processing industry customers.
Sandy was a founding member of the Titanium Development Association, now International Titanium Association (ITA). He is currently a member of the ASTM B10 committeeon Reactive and Refractory Metals and Alloys, and has held memberships in National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE International), Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry (TAPPI) and the Chlorine Institute. He has an MBA from Pepperdine University, The George L. Graziano School of Business and Management.
