Challenges

The task

The cupola furnace offered only limited access for the demolition work

The old lining had to be removed without residue and without damaging the load-bearing furnace structure

Suitable equipment and experienced personnel were required for the confined conditions

The work had to be completed safely and on schedule to keep to the timetable for the relining

Our solution

The SBS approach

Our team prepared the assignment carefully and was on site with the right equipment. The demolition work was carried out systematically and in strict compliance with all safety requirements.

Despite the confined conditions at the cupola furnace, the team worked efficiently and in a coordinated manner. The old lining was removed completely and without residue, leaving the furnace structure undamaged.

The demolition was completed on schedule and the furnace was handed over prepared for the subsequent relining.
