Rapid Welding has worked with Kemppi since the company opened in 1990. Co-founder and Managing Director Roy Edwards highlighted the principles behind that 36-year partnership, from choosing the right welding solution and supporting equipment throughout its life to addressing the skills shortage and finding the right place for automation and laser welding.

Svejsesikkerhed er blevet stadig mere krævende. Risikoen er den samme, men moderne arbejdsforhold betyder, at eksponeringen kan hobe sig op i løbet af længerevarende arbejdsskift og i trange indendørs rum. Det betyder, at personlige værnemidler til svejsning både skal ses som beskyttelse af svejseren og som overholdelse af regler. Hos Kemppi designes og valideres personlige værnemidler til svejsesikkerhed i praksis gennem klare krav, feedback fra svejsere og verificeret overholdelse af EU's PPE-forordning 2016/425, CE-mærkningsprocesser og relevante EN-standarder.

Eurosatory 2026 highlighted a clear shift in modern defence manufacturing. While defence systems are becoming more digital, networked, and autonomous, their foundation remains physical. From armoured vehicles and artillery to industrial resilience, welding quality, steel structures, and production discipline remain paramount to defence readiness.
