Abstract: A method for applying a flexible cladding material to an outer surface of an insulation layer for a pipe section includes providing the insulation layer in the shape of a cylinder and providing first and a second supporting elements with a gap therebetween. A layer of the flexible cladding material is arranged between the insulation layer and the first and second supporting elements. The insulation layer and the supporting elements are moved in relation to each other in such manner that the insulation layer and at least part of the layer of the flexible cladding material is moved through the gap between the first and the second supporting elements. The two supporting elements are moved toward one other after the insulation layer and the layer of flexible cladding material has passed through the gap. The flexible cladding material is adhesively connected to the insulation layer during or after the steps.
