Martina Engelmann, Project Manager Germany at SMS Group, stated: “We are delighted to continue our partnership with ROGESA. Our advanced hearth coating technology allows ROGESA to extend the lifespan of its furnaces and operate more safely.”

“ We appreciate the quick response and flexible solutions”

Dr. Jürgen Hochhaus, Operations Manager of the Blast Furnace Department at ROGESA, stated: ”We would like to thank the SMS Group for their quick response and flexible solutions. Their expertise, especially in hearth lining and sensor technology, ensures the durability and safety of our operations.”
