Commercial kitchens are a hive of activity with employees rushing to prepare meals for hungry customers. Such an active environment combined with grease and high heat are a favourable ground for sudden fire putting people and property at risk. A rapid response is a necessity, and this is how to do it.

Léo is one of our apprentice at Rotarex. He combines his technical studies with hands-on experience in our factory in Luxembourg. This program helps him foster his sense of initiative, teamwork, problem-solving, organizational and communication skills. We spent some time with him to collect his impressions about his apprenticeship at Rotarex.

From emergency, in-hospital rooms, until homecare, medical grade gases contribute to providing quality patient care. When we talk about medical gases the first reflex is to think of oxygen but it is not the only gas used to save lives. For example, medical nitric oxide plays an important role in anesthesia and analgesia. As a combination with oxygen, nitric oxide (NO) is also used in therapies for pulmonary complications. This gas mixture increases the oxygenation index and decreases the need for ECMO. Primarily used to treat newborns having trouble adapting to breathing on their own, NO’s scope of applications has grown in the course of the last decade.

The gas industry is constantly changing, as new applications emerge and existing solutions are further optimized. Innovation requires speed as well as expertise which gives an advantage to companies that can develop new products in-house.

Finding and hiring qualified CNC machine setters and technicians is a real challenge for any manufacturing organization like Rotarex. CNC machines are intended to manufacture a wide variety of high-quality products and differ from one industry to another. The machines must be calibrated and operated with precision and it requires a lot of people to keep those machines operating smoothly. To be efficient and confident in their new tasks, CNC employees need therefore professional trainings to refresh and enhance their knowledge.

Bellows valves are found wherever zero leakage, high-flow, durability, and easy maintenance is a must.

As an expert in gas applications, it should come as no surprise that Rotarex is right at home in a laboratory setting. Laboratories use different pure gases or gas mixtures in their daily operations for preparative or analytical purposes.

The semiconductor industry is booming. Growth is fueled by electronics such as computers, smartphones, digital displays and cutting-edge applications like the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing.
