The Company's core market is the oil and gas sector where components are typically exposed to high levels of abrasion, corrosion and wear. Hardide's unique coating typically extends the life of components by 5 times. Unlike other coating methods, the Hardide Tungsten Carbide application does not use a cobalt-based binding agent and is also applied in gaseous form, enabling Hardide to coat out-of-sight surfaces and complex shapes. Customers include global companies operating in the oil and gas, valves, pumps and aerospace sectors. Hardide has a full-scale production facility located in Bicester, UK and a sales and manufacturing office in Houston, Texas.
