Depuis plus de 30 ans, nos projets de recherche conjoints ont abouti à la mise au point de profilés de pointe disponibles dans notre division structurelle et au développement continu de notre technologie UltraSTEEL.
Nous avons mené d’importantes recherches sur l’optimisation de notre processus de conception d’outils – ainsi que sur le développement de notre compréhension des propriétés acoustiques et thermiques des produits en acier laminé à froid utilisés dans la construction.
