Product examples
We are committed to offering sustainable solutions to our customers, many of whom operate in segments with rigorous sustainability requirements.
Through a detailed understanding of customer needs, we develop innovative products, solutions and services that help them raise their productivity and competitiveness, reduce environmental impact and improve health and safety for their employees. Some of them are:
Fibrothal™ heating modules
Fibrothal electric furnace heating modules are highly energy efficient, have a long service life and require minimal maintenance compared with conventional furnaces.
Hot isostatic pressed fuel nozzles
We use the latest Hot Isostatic Pressed (HIP) techniques to manufacture 2-stroke marine diesel engine fuel nozzles that reduce emissions, improve fuel efficiency and extend component service life.
Pressurfect™ tube for gasoline direct injection (GDI)
Gasoline direct injection (GDI) technology in cars helps reduce fuel consumption by 20% or more and lowers emissions. Yet achieving this means a doubling of pressure in the fuel system. Sandvik has developed Pressurfect GDI tubes specifically to meet the higher pressure requirements for next-generation engine platforms. Plus, as the automotive industry chases every gram to reduce fuel consumption, The thin, seamless walls of Pressurfect tube offer a powerfully lighter alternative.
Did you know?
Already in use by Ford, GM and others, high-pressure GDI fuel systems are now in more than 500,000 engines on the road, including the Ford EcoBoost series.

Sandvik Hiflex™ compressor valve steel
With the number of refrigerators and air conditioning systems worldwide skyrocketing, it's essential to make them energy efficient. Sandvik Hiflex is a martensitic chromium strip steel grade with extremely high fatigue strength. It's been designed to meet the tough demands on compressor valves brought about by trends for smaller, highly energy-efficient compressors such as those found in refrigerators and cars.
Did you know?
Exchanging just a third of Chinese household refrigerators (about 125 million) into energy-smart models with compressor valves using material like Sandvik Hiflex could save 25TWH annually. That's enough energy to power one million Swedish houses for a year!
Sandvik SAF 2707 HD™ hyper-duplex stainless steel
Sandvik SAF 2707 HD is a high-alloy duplex (austenitic-ferritic) stainless steel for service in highly corrosive conditions. The grade is particularly suited for use in aggressive acidic and chloride containing environments. Thus, it can provide environmental savings as well as financial advantages for end user.
Sandvik Sanergy™ pre-coated strip steel for fuel cells
A fuel cell is an energy converter used to make electricity and heat from hydrogen and oxygen – with zero harmful emissions. A real "save the planet" idea. At Sandvik, we're proud to offer our materials expertise for the pre-coated stainless steel strip for fuel cells, a technology whose market is growing. With a unique, full-scale plant, we're ready to help fuel cell manufacturers put this great idea in more hands.
Did you know?
The only emission from fuel cells is pure water. That's clean energy to heat your home, power your smartphone, and move your car. In fact, a fuel cell vehicle has a range of about 500 km and is refueled in less than 5 minutes.

Tubes in Safurex™ material for urea production
By using a high strength steel with higher corrosion resistance in a production plant for urea the energy consumption in the production process can be reduced by 7%, which corresponds to 265,000 tons of CO2 for the tube system's life time compared to a conventional stainless steel material.
