The steel industry is the backbone of modern infrastructure, playing a vital role in everything from transportation to energy and manufacturing. Yet, as global demand for steel continues to climb, so too does the pressure on producers to improve efficiency, prioritise safety, and adopt sustainable practices. The industry is at a crossroads where traditional methods are no longer enough to meet these challenges. At Fractum, we offer a groundbreaking solution designed to transform the way steel is produced, processed, and handled.
For decades, steel operations have relied on conventional methods such as hydraulic hammers, drop-ball handling, and oxy-cutting to break down tough materials like iron ore, slag, and scrap metal. While these methods work, they come with significant limitations: they are often inefficient, hazardous, and environmentally taxing. Fractum’s advanced high-impact breaker technology offers a smarter, safer, and more sustainable alternative, setting a new standard for the steel industry.

Why Fractum stands out
The steel industry’s pursuit of innovation and sustainability is reshaping its operational landscape, and Fractum’s technology stands at the forefront of this transformation, offering powerful solutions that address the industry’s most critical challenges.
Traditional methods for handling heavy materials often come with significant drawbacks such as:
- High risk: Oxy-cutting and drop-ball handling pose safety hazards for operators and the surrounding environment.
- Operational inefficiency: Frequent maintenance and equipment downtime disrupt productivity.
- Environmental impact: Vibrations, flying debris, noise, and excessive use of fuel contribute to pollution and regulatory challenges, especially when handling waste material.
Fractum’s technology directly addresses these issues with a smarter, safer, and greener approach.
Our breakers leverage a unique impact mechanism that delivers unmatched power and precision. This innovative approach allows the equipment to handle large, dense materials with ease, breaking them into manageable sizes while maintaining precision and control. This ensures minimal collateral damage and creates a safer and cleaner work environment.
How Fractum benefits the steel industry
Steel production is a complex and demanding process, requiring careful management of materials to ensure smooth operations. Fractum’s high-impact breakers are a game-changer for this industry, offering tangible benefits that address some of its most pressing challenges:
- Improved efficiency: Fractum’s technology streamlines material processing, reduces the need for extra equipment and transportation, and minimises downtime.
- Enhanced safety: Traditional methods like drop-ball handling or oxy-cutting pose serious safety risks with debris, vibrations, and hazardous materials. Fractum’s precision-based breakers reduce these dangers, allowing operators to work safely from a distance.
- Cost savings: In the steel industry, small inefficiencies can result in significant costs. Fractum’s durable, low-maintenance breakers improve operational efficiency, reduce repairs, and minimise disruptions, leading to cost savings. They also lower reliance on secondary equipment and transportation, further cutting expenses.
- Environmental sustainability: Fractum’s technology offers a greener solution by producing less noise and vibration, helping companies meet environmental regulations. The elimination of oxy-cutting also reduces contamination risks, supporting sustainability goals and positioning businesses as industry leaders in responsibility.
