The customer is Westinghouse, which Sandvik has worked closely with for many years, and the cladding tubes will be used in nuclear power plants worldwide.

As a result of the agreement, Sandvik’s Board of Directors has approved a significant expansion of production capacity for cladding tubes at Sandvik Materials Technology’s facility in Sandviken, Sweden.

“Sandvik offers a broad product program to the rapidly growing nuclear power industry. This delivery agreement for cladding tubes further strengthens our position as a supplier of advanced materials to this demanding market,” says Peter Gossas, President of the Sandvik Materials Technology business area.
