Products
Merox's development
and production is integrated with SSAB:s production of high quality
steel.
The quality control in the steel industry and the very detailed
analysis are a great benefit to us.
We know
exactly what goes into our production - and what comes out. The
products are often developed in cooperation with our customers and their desires
and demands are of great importance to us.
Sand, stone and crush-material
Our main product, Hyttsten,
a light weight crushed material, consists of remelted natural rocks and
limestone, which are being air-cooled. Hyttsand is a
granulated type. Both products are environmental friendly, with high carrying
capacity and light weight and at reasonable prices.
- Hyttsten is
the Swedish trade name for the all-purpose aggregate, known as
ACBFS (air-cooled blast furnace slag) in the US and Canada and
ABS in the EU.
- Hyttsand is the Swedish trade name for
GBS
(Granulated blast funace
slag).
