Petrochemical industry

The highest requirements are placed upon process safety and product quality in the multi-stage processes involved in converting crude oil into basic or high-quality end products. Plant manufacturers use abrasion-resistant and temperature-resistant forged products, allowing the systems to withstand the continuous stresses they are exposed to. Components which can withstand fluctuating temperatures, humidity, corrosive and potentially explosive atmospheres are primarily used.

Our special materials are particularly suitable here, thanks to their good mechanical properties. Especially the high fatigue strength when faced with fluctuating temperatures and the exceptional resistance to many types of corrosion are characteristic properties for our materials in this application area.
