Within Ovako we have a lot of historical and new knowledge on steel topics that will never cease to be important: heat treatment, welding, machining, wear resistance, quantifying steel cleanness and many others.

The most commonly-used standard method to determine the cleanness of a steel was developed many decades ago when steel quality was significantly lower.

Good intentions are great, but positive action is what really counts. That is why at Ovako we are proud to start the new year with fully carbon-neutral operations.
