Welding in arctic conditions
20 de febrero de 2019
Today, Arctic areas are attracting much attention due to the large oil and natural gas deposits located there. As much as 13% of the Earth's unexploited oil reserves and 30% of natural gas reserves may be located in Arctic areas. The energy industry's largest projects to build gas and oil distribution networks are essentially based on steel construction and welding technology.

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.
