What Fastpack does

Fastpack is a Chilean-headquartered industrial manufacturer and solutions integrator specialized in fluid transport, handling, and control for the mining, oil & gas, and industrial utility sectors. Founded in 1990 and headquartered in Lampa (Santiago), the company operates through four business units — Transporte de Fluidos, Manejo y Control de Fluidos (FPValves), Fire Protection Solutions, and Asset Integrity — and runs the only fully automated spool fabrication factory in Chile, with additional plants in Antofagasta (opened June 2026) and Lurín, Peru (opened January 2026). Its customer base is dominated by large mining operators and their EPC contractors, with documented projects for Codelco (Rajo Inca, USD 1.4B), BHP (Spence SGO USD 2.5B; MEL/Full Sal USD 470M), Lundin Aurelian (Fruta del Norte, USD 36M), Mantos Copper (USD 832M), and Brazauro (first Brazil project, 2026).

The company's core products are pre-fabricated piping spools in carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex, titanium Grade 2, and special alloys; a proprietary valve line (FPValves) covering knife, pinch, gate, butterfly, control, and ball valves; complete fire protection systems (FM200/Novec 1230/CO2, pumps, sprinklers, foam); and pipeline asset integrity services (MFL/UT inspection, RBI studies, repair). Underlying technology includes advanced semiautomatic and automatic welding (Hyperfill, Rolling Inductor, multiprocess LE towers capable of up to 200 PDs/day), in-house autoclave vulcanization for rubber and ceramic linings, polyurethane coating, and a Sensor Pack monitoring system for rubber-lined piping wear. Through exclusive 2026 partnerships, Fastpack distributes PipeSense leak detection and pig tracking technology in Chile/Peru and Cornerstone Valve's solids-proof ball valves in Chile.

Fastpack operates a direct enterprise field-sales model with long, technical sales cycles involving engineering, product management, and executive sponsorship, supported by regional subsidiary structures in Peru and Brazil and channel/technology representation agreements (PipeSense, Cornerstone, Rosen, Lincoln Electric). Revenue is project-based and quote-driven, with no public pricing; monetization spans hardware sales (spools, valves, fire protection), professional services (asset integrity engineering and inspection), and managed services (PipeSense integration). Distribution is primarily factory-direct to mine and plant sites across Chile, Peru, Ecuador, and now Brazil.

Revenue model

1. Spool Fabrication and Piping Solutions: Design, fabrication, and supply of spools (pipes and fittings) in carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex, titanium, and special alloys. Revenue is project-based, typically large one-time contracts with mining operators. Products include rubber-lined spools, ceramic-lined spools, and polyurethane-coated spools. Includes in-house engineered pipeline components such as energy dissipator rings, pig launchers/receivers, quick-open caps, and PIG signals.
2. Proprietary Valve Sales (FPValves): Sale of in-house manufactured valves under the FPValves brand, including knife valves, pinch valves, wall/canal gate valves, butterfly valves, control valves, and ball valves in various materials including titanium Grade 2. Valves are sold both as standalone products and as part of integrated piping solutions.
3. Fire Protection Solutions: Engineering, supply, installation, and commissioning of fire protection systems including packaged pump systems, bolted water tanks, clean agents (FM200/Novec 1230/CO2), portable and mobile extinguishers, hydrants, sprinklers, fittings, certified piping, foam systems, and bladder tanks.
4. Asset Integrity Services: Pipeline integrity management services including internal pipeline cleaning, MFL and UT inspection, risk-based engineering studies (RBI), periodic integrity control programs, anomaly detection (leaks, corrosion, deposits), defect evaluation, critical asset management studies, in-line pipe evaluations (monthly, semi-annual, annual), and repair services using Hot Tape and sealing equipment.
5. Technology Representation (PipeSense): Exclusive representation of PipeSense (US-based) pipeline monitoring technologies — leak detection, pig tracking, and hydrostatic testing — for Chile and Peru. Fastpack acts as the local integrator and distributor, adding its own service layer (technical support, installation, monitoring) to these technology platforms.
