Kemppi and the EU Ecodesign Directive
25. oktober 2022
As of January 1st 2021, the European Union established an Ecodesign Directive that directly applies to any energy-using products sold in the member states, including welding machines. What does this mean, and what can a manufacturer do to keep up with the directive? Is it possible for the welding machine industry to become fully green? At Kemppi, environmental awareness is simply one of our operating principles.

How Ready Are We for Green Steel?
The steel industry is without a doubt one of the highest CO2-emitting industries and its effects on the environment raise concerns. High-strength and “green” steel can offer both environmental and financial benefits for manufacturers that contribute to sustainable development. But how ready are we to commit to it?

Industry 4.0 in welding – myth or reality?
Industry 4.0 refers to the Fourth Industrial Revolution. What does it mean, and how does it fit into the conservative world of welding? Can the intelligence of a welding machine truly bring additional value to an organization and benefit welders as well?

Comprehensive service network saves time and money
Investing in a welding machine does not end when you have made the purchase and received the device. Keeping the machine up and running for its entire lifecycle and maintaining a high arc time are aspects that many overlook when choosing the machine.

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.

Eurosatory 2026 And the Future of Defence Manufacturing
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.
