Where Automation Hits a Wall
– A Soulful Paw Catches the Fall In today’s industrial manufacturing environment, automation often seems to be the apex achievement. But even Selmers must admit that automation has its limits. These however, do not lie in the technical, but rather in the personal. Could technology someday replace a soulful touch entirely? The answer lies […]
UN-Like watching paint dry….
Unparalleled Fast-Curing Technology The Dutch have a funny expression for something that takes so long, the waiting seems endless…: ‘Standing on your head and waiting for your socks to fall down.’ The English equivalent is ‘watching paint dry’. The interesting part is that Selmers engineered a coating solution that actually allows you to wait […]
Having a blast – actually not coating anything
Having a blast – actually not coating anything Our sales department often receives enquiries about the types of pipes and tubes we blast, coat, and handle.

We’re not suggesting it’s akin to that acquaintance who overstays their welcome on your couch… But consider it a helpful digital hologram of […]

You probably do the same with your operations’ handling equipment. But as with the perfect frosting, it is with the perfect pipe coating… Experience, good ingredients and balance […]
Longer lifespan, less downtime because of ‘magic touch’
‘Magic touch’ for longer lifespan and less downtime Decades of experience is not something that can be acquired by training, or that can be replaced by equipment.

Trick or treat? Unplanned downtime:
a real-life horror story
