General

You imported fasteners. The container arrived. And the parts aren't in usable condition. It's a situation that happens more often than it should. And when it does, the problem isn't just technical — it's logistical, financial, and urgent. You have a delivery deadline to meet and a batch of parts you can't use.

Corrosion is often perceived as a technical problem. But in reality, it's an economic problem. Each corroded component not only implies material damage, but also a series of associated costs that directly impact the profitability of an operation.

In machinery exports, one of the most frequent—and costly—issues is premature corrosion in exported machinery. Fasteners, bolted joints, structures, and metal subassemblies begin to show corrosion shortly after delivery or during the early stages of operation.
