5 ways to save in welding consumable costs

Money talks. In almost all companies, costs and expenses are critical components in decision-making, and the winner is the one who achieves the highest quality at the lowest total cost. In the world of welding, not only the purchase price of welding equipment is significant, but also the price of frequently-replaced welding consumables. Wouldn't you also like to achieve significant cost savings in consumables?

The heat resistance of the HD welding gun makes a welder's work more efficient

When the workload gets heavy and the days get longer, both welders and their welding guns heat up. Emotions can be cooled down with a cup of coffee, but the welding gun only cools down by taking regular breaks. To keep these breaks as short as possible, optimizing the thermal conductivity and heat resistance of the welding gun are important in daily work.

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

Welding safety has become increasingly demanding. The hazards at the arc remain constant, but modern working conditions mean exposure can accumulate over longer shifts and in tighter indoor spaces. As a result, welding PPE needs to be treated as both protection for the welder and proof of compliance. At Kemppi, welding safety PPE is designed and validated in practice through clear requirements, welder-led feedback, and verified compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425, CE marking processes, and relevant EN standards.
