In the past, the company has contributed
important advancements in precision

metallurgical industries.
Seco/Warwick has manufacturing facilities
in USA and Poland that are complementary
to Retech’s USA facilities in California
and New Jersey. Retech has recently
established an office facility in New Jersey
(USA) as the centre of excellence for the
Retech vacuum arc remelt product group.
This office will also support the joint efforts
with Seco/Warwick’s vacuum team.
Mr Jeff Boswell, Seco/Warwick Group
president, says
“We look forward to working
together through this strategic alliance to
serve our worldwide customer base with
a complete portfolio of products for heat
treatment, metal melting and environmental
treatment systems.”
