What awaits you with us

What you work with every day — the equipment, tasks and technology of this position.

Blast cleaning in a 25 m blast chamber

You blast-clean welded assemblies to Sa 2.5 — on request up to Sa 3 — on the Sybrandy Vario Primus 45 KE blasting system in a 25 × 7 × 6 m blast chamber.

Industrial coating up to C5-H

You coat heavy components up to 50 t to EN ISO 12944 up to corrosivity category C5-H — applied with Wagner and Cobra paint spraying systems and Sata spray guns.

Blasting and painting from a single source

You take charge of the complete surface: blasted components move without any external company into the identically built paint booth, where you measure every coat thickness and document it to ISO 9001.
