Nord Steel coating department: 1400 m2 inhouse workshop and limitless facilities outside
Steel manufacturing process usually never ends up with welding. Approximately 90% of Nord Steel products manufactured in our own steel workshop take a step into the surface treatment area.
Steel coating includes polishing, brushing, blasting, etching and coloring touches. Selecting the right surface treatment is important in determining the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel surface.
More than 1400 m2 of indoor steel workshop at Nord Steel is dedicated exclusively to coating activities. For instance, shot-blasting is performed in two separate shot-blasting chambers, giving the possibility to indoor shot-blast products of up to 5m in diameter, 20m in length. Not to mention limitless painting facilities outside. All the operations are strictly supervised by an experienced coating engineer or FROSIO inspector.
Manufactured and Delivered: 6-cell Baghouse Filter (Scotland)
When we say that we work in heavy industry, we literally mean – HEAVY. Here is a completed project where Nord Steel manufactured fully assembled cells and connecting duct system for a 6-cell Baghouse Filter.
Each cell was 4,2 meters in diameter, 17 meters in height, reaching 10 tons of weight per unit. All structures were shot blasted and primed or coated with a full coating system.
Gas-tight structures require extreme focus on the details. For this project our best engineers prepared the welding plan – one of the most important parts of the process. Extremely strict quality control and acceptance criteria helped to minimize any potential deformation and keep up with very strict design tolerance.
Manufactured equipment was delivered to waste-to-energy project in Scotland.
Nord Steel participated in National Responsible Business Awards
In the end of last year, Nord Steel participated in the National Responsible Business Awards, organized by the Ministry of Social Security and Labour. These awards recognize socially responsible companies that are leading the way and moving beyond corporate social responsibility.
What is the responsible business for Nord Steel? It’s not just plain compliance with national laws or internationally acclaimed standards – this part is mandatory, out of the discussion.
But what really shows, if the company is socially responsible is TEAM! The way Nord Steel employees are motivated to walk an extra mile or show initiative in making things better without being asked for it. This is our main goal – to spread social responsibility and increase efficiency in all our processes.
A socially responsible company does more than what is required by legal provisions. It aims for the better in every area of its operations and inspires positive changes around.
Manufactured steel storage silos delivered to Broceni cement plant in Latvia
Last week Nord Steel has transported two steel storage silos to the Broceni cement plant in Latvia. One loaded truck weighs 40t. Its dimensions are also impressive: 23.5m length, 4m width and 5m height.
Transporting the production which is most of the times and bulky is a very important part of our projects requiring extreme care and precision. Luckily, all of our deliveries so far are accident-free.
We would like to thank to Mažeikiai Municipality for capturing some moments of this grand delivery.
Certified Gas Equipment
Certified Gas Equipment | Dream team of various specialists and rich portfolio of demanding clients makes us flexible and creative. At Nord Steel we usually manufacture tailor made equipment – diverse inquiries on demand and custom solutions have become our everyday routine. Client-oriented approach led us to becoming engineers and manufacturers of very specific gas equipment. We are the official manufacturer of technical certified trolleys for pipeline inspections. These trolleys ease access and reduce the potential risks while launching inspection equipment (intelligent pigs) to the pressurized pipeline.
Take a closer look to some of our works that were delivered to projects across Baltic countries.
