Our coatings could be the key to a cleaner energy future - discover how: Gas turbines work on the same principles as jet engines. To make it more efficient, engineers are trying to increase the temperature difference between the hot 🔥 and cold side of the process. The larger the difference, the larger the expansion. “Blade performance is often a limiting factor when designing gas turbines. Höganäs' thermal barrier coatings in effect cool the blades, enabling engineers to increase the temperature,” says Ken Nalwasky, Director OEM accounts at Höganäs. With the climate transition, fossil natural gas will make way for hydrogen which produces new challenges. “Gas turbines complement intermittent renewables well and will play a major role as the grid decarbonises. In close collaboration with the industry, we are developing advanced coatings that will ensure a smooth transition to clean hydrogen,” says Sophie Zhou, Vice President Business Development at Höganäs. #netzero2037 #sustainability #coatings #powderthatempowers

Did you know that industrial by-products can help restore coral reefs? 🌊 This summer, 132 star-shaped concrete reefs made from Höganäs’ slag were deployed at six locations off Sweden’s west coast near Strömstad. These reefs are more than just structures—they’re new homes for coral larvae, playing a vital role in rejuvenating and protecting Sweden’s coral reefs. This is one of the many ways we at Höganäs are driving positive change through material innovation.Björn Haase Read more here ⬇ https://lnkd.in/dG9qzRMG #powderthatempowers #drivingpositivechange #höganäs

💡 We have successfully wrapped up a two-year project that proves the technical feasibility of using excess powder from a customer’s Additive Manufacturing process as input material in Höganäs' own production.  The intended end-users of this material are in the aerospace industry 🚀, where demands on components are famously rigorous, making this achievement even more significant. “We have created a robust upcycling process, which ensures powder qualities matching our demanding requirements,” says Carlström Ralf Vice President of Business Development at Höganäs. Metal powders used in Additive Manufacturing today are almost solely based on virgin materials. Closing the loop by increasing the use of by-products can cut emissions drastically. “Our initial calculations show that this reduces greenhouse gas emission by around 44 percent. And we could perhaps further stretch how much by-product we use”, says Deniz Yigit, Vice President of Strategy & Business Development and Head of Ceramics at Höganäs.

🌟 Diversity and Inclusion at Höganäs 🌟 Embracing diversity and inclusion enhances our problem-solving and decision-making capabilities and ensures every voice is heard, while broadening our talent pool. This year, we made significant strides in our diversity and inclusion journey. We developed a comprehensive roadmap, breaking down our ambitions into clear, measurable objectives and goals with both short- and long-term action plans. 📚 One key initiative was launching our e-learning course, "Sustainable Workplace for Everyone", aimed at raising awareness about diversity and inclusion. 🗣️ Our inclusive communications guide complements our Code of Conduct, detailing how we should interact and support each other. This year's leadership training, "Collaboration Across Boundaries", focused on understanding cultural differences for better cross-border cooperation. 🚫 We maintain a zero-tolerance policy against discrimination in any form, including sexual orientation and gender expression. 👩💼 Gender diversity is a critical focus area for us, especially in our traditionally male-dominated industry. By 2026, we aim to increase the share of female co-workers to 20% and female executive managers to 35%. Together, let's continue to foster a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive!
