Are Pekotek's solutions established and tested in the industry?

A frequently asked question is how established Pekotek's products are and whether they have been tested over an extended period in the industry.

Specifically, the question primarily refers to the patented air-assisted abrasive material recycling technology used in larger blast rooms. This question is understandable, as this technology challenges existing solutions that have been in use for a long time.

Why is Pekotek’s solution so advantageous?

The simple answer: It reduces maintenance efforts, saves energy, and offers more flexibility in choosing the abrasive material.

How the solution works in detail and why it is so intelligent is explained in depth in these articles:

Is the technology already used elsewhere?

Pekotek Oy is a Finnish company based in Joensuu, founded in 1983. It develops industrial surface treatment systems and equipment. Pekotek manufactures systems tailored to individual customer requirements and production needs, with a clear focus on quality, sustainability, and energy savings.

Pekotek has delivered over 500 systems to industries in Finland and several European countries. Some of the customers include VR, ABB, Bombardier, Kalmar, Sandvik, Ponsse, Ruukki, Konecranes, Metso, FSP, Löfs, Alucrom, and Carelia Corro.

Is the technology durable and robust?

Many of the blast rooms that Pekotek installed in the early 1980s are still in operation today.

For example, read the customer report about Ponsse, where Pekotek delivered a blasting system that has been in operation for over 20 years. Ponsse is one of the world's largest manufacturers of forestry machines. Over the years, the system has been modernized and expanded.
