Welding wire made of four grades of steel was tested. These products are in demand in shipbuilding and ship repair. It is used for welding in protective gases, as well as for the manufacture of electrodes.

Experts from the Industry Certification Center conducted a comprehensive inspection of BMK's production: they visited the rolling mill, the alloy wire workshop, visited the control testing and metrology departments, analyzed the documentation and assessed the qualifications of the staff. Then, in our own certification laboratory, we checked the welding and technological properties of the wire, as well as the quality of the weld. The results confirmed that the BMK welding wire meets the requirements and can be used in the shipbuilding industry.

In modern conditions, the availability of such certificates is becoming an important factor that allows us to strengthen our position in the welding materials market and participate in tender procedures, said Violetta Nashatyrova, General Director of BMK JSC

"This proves the high quality and reliability of BMK welding wire, is a guarantee of trust for our customers and confirms our responsible approach at all stages of the production process."

The certificates are issued for 5 years with mandatory annual confirmation.
