The group's principal activity is to produce a variety of solid stainless steel products utilizing traditional stainless production techniques. The group produces two separate product lines through its aberneath facility: nuovinox(tm), a stainless steel cladded product with a carbon steel core, and steel abrasive shot pellets which are used as an abrasive cleaner and polisher in steel manufacturing. The properties of the stainless steel cladding enable nuovinox to be used for many applications which require an upgrading of carbon steel or a substitute for stainless steel, in particular where corrosion resistance, hygiene and aesthetics are determining factors. The group holds approximately 70 worldwide patents for nuovinox.
