We employ forward-looking maintenance and repair strategies in all areas that are prone to excessive wear and tear, and make use of cutting-edge digital technology (Maintenance Level 4.0) to support these strategies.

Our services for green/brownfield facilities, auxiliary systems (balance of plant), pilot facilities, as well as prototype, frame and container solutions cover steelworks, pipelines, mechanical elements and machinery, instrumentation projects, as well as all Christof Industries 360° services in the sectors we cover.
