Iranian Technological Firm Produces Environmentally-Friendly Welding Electrodes

“By using these nanomaterials instead of copper, there is no need for an acidic bath and compounds, therefore, the risk of acid evaporation in the environment will be zero,” said Mohammad Reza Afkhami, the chairman of the board of directors of the company.

“Also, in common electrodes, a lot of water is needed, and with this replacement, water consumption has reduced,” he added. Brand Welding Electrodes

Noting that the company’s experts have made lots of efforts to replace copper with different materials to decrease costs and minimize the negative environmental impacts, Afkhami said, “We have succeeded in increasing efficiency by 50% with this new technology.”

"We have also managed to enter the European markets in the past few years and exported 24 tons of electrodes to Spain. We are currently exporting our products to neighboring countries including Georgia," he concluded.
