As one of Europe’s most prestigious industrial showcases, the BIEMH represents a critical nexus for the advanced manufacturing sector and the machine-tool industry. This biennial event serves as a premier stage for technological breakthroughs in robotics, digitalization, and additive manufacturing, playing a pivotal role in the global supply chain’s evolution. For industry leaders like Metalcorten, the BIEMH is more than an exhibition; it is an essential strategic hub where high-end metallurgy meets large-scale industrial demand, fostering the B2B partnerships that drive the future of smart factories and sustainable infrastructure across international borders.
Driving the Future of Industrial Steel
With over two decades of expertise, Metalcorten has redefined the standards for COR-TEN® and weathering alloys (S355J2WP and HC 315WP). At BIEMH, the company will highlight its R&D-driven approach to steel manufacturing, which focuses on enhancing the characteristic orange copper-tone oxidation while maintaining 100% of the mechanical properties of the base steel.
Innovation Spotlight: The Calamine Grinding Disc
A key highlight of the exhibit will be Metalcorten’s revolutionary Calamine Grinding Disc. Developed by their internal R&D department, these specialized polyamide-mix discs allow for the total removal of surface calamine on black carbon steel without damaging the base material. This innovation ensures a perfectly uniform oxidation process, a critical factor for architects, industrial designers, and large-scale manufacturers.
“Our presence at BIEMH is a testament to our commitment to the industrial B2B sector,” said a spokesperson for Metalcorten. “We don’t just supply steel; we provide engineered solutions. From our precision-made tubes and profiles to our specialized surface treatments, we empower our clients to build structures that are both resilient and visually striking.”
Global Reach, Local Expertise
With dedicated digital platforms and warehouses across Spain, Portugal, France, and the UK, and an export network reaching as far as Mexico and Turkey, Metalcorten is uniquely positioned to handle complex international logistics for large-scale industrial projects, facades, and civil engineering works.
