High quality steel requires continuous innovation
The Research and Development department is therefore an important part of the company. For the continuous improvement of our products and processes, we use advanced, digital technologies. We also work extensively with our customers to jointly develop the best possible steel products.
In addition to the manufacture of steel products, Tata Steel Netherlands is also involved in innovative projects in areas such as transport, research and the manufacturing industry. This includes the development of the so-called Hyperloop, a futuristic high-speed train as a sustainable alternative mode of transport. Tata Steel Netherlands supplies the steel for this project. In the coming years, Tata Steel Netherlands will be developing an application for the vacuum tubes of the Einstein Telescope. This is a new high-tech facility to detect gravitational waves. It will help scientists form a new view of the universe and its origins.
In addition, Tata Steel Netherlands is involved in the development of the vacuum tubes for the Einstein Telescope. This is a new high-tech facility, which still need to be constructed, aiming to detect gravitational waves with unprecedented sensitivity. This instrument will allow scientists to form a new view on the universe and its origin.
The Netherlands is in the race to acquire this billion-dollar project and realize it in South Limburg. The decision on the final construction site is scheduled for 2026. To increase the chance of bringing this ambitious project to the Netherlands, scientists from Dutch universities, research institutes and companies have joined forces and started the Einstein Telescope Technologies (ETT) project, in which the many challenging aspects are investigated.
