Industry Challenges

Fluid Challenges in Steel Processing

As the carbon-neutral agenda and demand for high-grade steel converge, customers demand rolling fluids that simultaneously improve strip cleanliness, lower energy and waste-treatment costs. Kerun's custom formulations balance performance, cost and sustainability, supporting the production of high-quality, high-value and greener steel products.

  • Stability under high-temp heavy-load conditions

    Hot and cold rolling operate under high temperature, pressure and shear—conventional oils age, leave carbon residue, and impair downstream annealing and galvanizing quality.

  • Strip surface quality and cleanliness

    Automotive sheet, appliance-grade steel and silicon steel require high surface finish, low residue and consistency—fluid cleanliness and contamination resistance directly impact downstream coating and end-user brand perception.

  • Environmental pressure and waste-liquid handling

    Under carbon-neutral pressure, steelmakers face constraints on energy, effluent and hazardous waste—eco-friendly water-based media and on-line oil monitoring become key levers for decarbonization.
