April 24 is Corrosion Awareness Day – a global day of action that draws attention to the often underestimated dangers of corrosion. Corrosion causes billions of dollars in damage annually and affects nearly all areas of industry, infrastructure, and technology.

We also encounter this issue regularly in everyday life: a striking example of the importance of corrosion protection is the Carola Bridge in Dresden. Hydrogen-induced stress corrosion cracking was identified as the cause of its collapse.

As a company with many years of experience in the field of corrosion protection, we know how crucial preventative measures are. Corrosion protection is active value preservation. Today – and every other day.
