For the most demanding industries
As a leading developer, manufacturer and supplier of high value-added products in advanced stainless steels and special alloys as well as products for industrial heating, our core competencies include, for example:
- Metallurgy and metallography
- Material design and characterization
- Process simulation
- Corrosion (wet and high temperature)
- Electrical resistance heating
- Powder technologies
- Surface coating technologies (CVD and PVD)
Based on long-term customer partnerships, we advance processes and applications in the most demanding industries through unique materials that are lightweight, durable, corrosion-resistant, and able to withstand extremely high temperatures and pressures.
And while we have a strong base within the industrial, chemical, power generation, and oil and gas segments, our offering for high-growth segments such as industrial heating, aerospace, medical, and hydrogen and renewable energy production is market-leading.
Our innovations pave the way for industry-wide breakthroughs
With more than 900 active alloy recipes, our offering includes products like seamless stainless steel tubes for the energy-, chemical and aerospace industry, precision strip steel for compressor valves in refrigerators, air conditioners and heat pumps, and knife- and doctor blade steel applications.
It also includes ultra-fine wires for medical and microelectronic devices, industrial electric heating technology and a portfolio of pre-coated steel strips for one of the most critical components in the hydrogen fuel cell stack – the bipolar plates.
Our product offering enables the transition to renewable energy sources, electrification of industries, innovation in the medical sector and much more.
Today, the amount of recycled material in our products is over 80 percent.
