Tenova Pyromet FEATURE
involved in project implementation. But at heart we are really a technology company focussed on having the best technology available in the arc furnace sector.” Pyromet started here 25 years ago as Pyromet Technologies and until five years ago when it was bought by Tenova, most business was conducted within South Africa. But backed by Tenova’s financial strength, world-wide net of companies and marketing agents, and manufacturing facilities in China, global work took off dramatically. It was a fortuitous change of direction. About three years ago South Africa was hit by the power crisis and with it limited electricity supply. “Currently there are no major projects happening here and they will only start again in a year or two time when the new power stations are due to come on stream. At present 60-70 percent of our work is international.”
