Company Profile...

The development and application of sophisticated wear resistant alloys has been at the core of Triten's business for over fifty years. During the 1950's, this business grew rapidly through the manufacture of abrasion resistant pipe and the refurbishment of slide valves for the petrochemical industry.

Such growth prompted a drive to find yet more efficient methods of applying wear protection and this research was spearheaded by the Company's founder, Roman F Arnoldy. This work led to the development in 1961 of the patented bulk welding process, which has been continuously developed and improved over the years and still provides the basis for the commercial production of Triten's wear resistant overlay steel plate.

From its beginning in Houston, Texas, Triten has expanded its wear resistant products business worldwide through both organic growth and the acquisition of companies such as Trimay ,Vidaplate (UK) and Capitan. Today, these activities make up Triten's Alloy Products Group. With manufacturing and sales centers in the USA, UK, Australia and Canada and representation in all major industrial markets, the Alloy Products Group of Triten is now the world's largest applicator of hardfacing and a major international force in the production and fabrication of wear resistant materials.
