Different Industrial Challenges
We pride our selves in our knowledge of the problems face by the various different sectors in which we specialise.
- Nuclear
- Petrochemical
- Pharmaceutical
- Marine & Offshore
- Construction & Architectural
- Precision Engineering
Each industry brings its own challenges, some require the highest imaginable standards of quality control, in others it is support in selecting the best materials while in others it is satisfying the requirement for small quantities in an industry where most manufactures prefer to deal in thousands of tons.
Our wide experience, knowledge of the industry standards and the systems and services we have developed ensure that we are able to work effectively and supportively with our clients.
Nuclear
Nuclear Industry
While we would never claim to be experts in our clients' industies we do take the trouble to understand the issues they face. So we would not attempt to discuss Hydrogen Embrittlement with you we do understand the problems it poses, the risks it entails and the importance of ensuring that the materials you utilise comply with appropriate standards.
We also hold all the appropriate approvals for supplying your industry. One of the problems of the steel industry are the apparently marginal varioations in different manufacturer's specifications. In most of our markets these variations are unimportant but we know that in this industry we must select suppliers that precisely match the specification.
Petrochemical
Petrochemical
Whether you are a petrochemical company yourselves or supplying and supporting the industry we can supply you. The petrochemical industry poses problems particularly for those supporting it. The range of challenges and applications is vast and the possible range of solutions is even greater.
We can help you with the selection and sourcing of the appropriate steels and alloys, we can supply them in the widest range of forms and we have an extensive range of fittings and flanges. And if we do not have them we know where to find them - Fast!
Pharmaceutical
Pharmaceutical
The Pharmaceutical industry poses another set of challenges. Due to the nature of the industry it is often the case that those designing plant for it often lack knowledge of the steel industry and the range of possible solutions particularly given the speed with whitch the steel industry is developing.
Marine/Offshore
Marine/Offshore
Contrary to popular belief, Marine Grade Stainless (Type 316 or EN1.4401) is not the only stainless steel that should be used in the challenging marine environmement. It is frequently neither the best nor the most cost effective.
