The company provides consultation services starting with the initial request up to coordination and dispatch of any required spare parts.
Safe transport and handling for the chemical industry
In the chemical sector, the requirements for process equipment have considerably increased in the last years. Applied substances can be extremely valuable in their high concentration but may also be very hazardous for the operator.
The increasing demands regarding product and operator protection are a decisive aspect for the growing needs of containment equipment. In order to protect the operator from consequential damage, the threshold values of the substances in use need to be strictly adhered to.
Robustness against aggressive chemical substances, high system availability and the guarantee of large output capacity are the most specific and important requirements within the chemical industry. All HECHT systems and components comply with these requirements.
The company has been in close contact with the chemical sector for many years and has the expertise to consult with customers to define the specific tasks at hand, work with them on processing demands and undertaking chemical projects.
