Corrosion of metals costs both industry and society billions every year. Yes, you read that right, billions of Swedish kronor. This damage from corrosion could easily be reduced by utilising existing knowledge about the various corrosion protections available today.
Corrosion or rust is for many people something that is accepted as a natural part of everyday life. Just look around wherever you are and you see rust everywhere.
How much should we really accept in these times when the environment and its impact are constantly being discussed?
Rust is something to be ashamed of for
After all, the rust not only attacks the products but also, by extension, the relationship with your customers. So why is it so hard to get business decision-makers to realise that doing something about rust is worthwhile?
Yes, because in most cases rust is something that people are ashamed of and swear by and therefore don't want to tell you that they have.
Many people we meet at companies consider rust to be something you have to accept, something that is already included in the manufacturing calculation as a cost. Often referred to as a budgeted scrap value. How can you think like that when competition and profitability requirements are increasing?
Wouldn't it be better to take care of and nurture what we have produced/bought instead of allowing enormous values to be destroyed and instead just producing/buying new.
In the long run, this will be unsustainable as our environment will be very negatively affected.
After all, there are so many proven, environmentally friendly and cost-effective solutions/products that take care of this corrosion problem.
