Inspection

SERVICE ALL AROUND THE WORLD

FOERSTER delivers specialized on-site inspection services for reformer tubes and process components in chemical, petrochemical, refining, fertilizer, and steel production environments worldwide. Using advanced non-destructive testing technologies – including eddy current and laser-based techniques – our experts assess tube condition, wall thickness, and structural integrity. Even under demanding high-temperature and high-stress conditions, we detect cracks, creep, and other degradation mechanisms to help ensure safe, reliable operation.

With decades of field experience and global service teams, FOERSTER supports operators in extending asset lifetime, preventing unplanned downtime, and maintaining stable plant performance.

Industries

Aerospace

The aerospace industry develops high‑precision technologies, materials, and systems for aircraft, spacecraft, and satellite‑based applications. It demands the highest levels of safety, quality, and reliability, driving innovation in navigation, propulsion, sensing, and advanced materials.

Archeology

What was life like in the past? What were people's homes like and how did the human culture develop? Archeology attempts to find answers to these questions and FOERSTER supports such projects by providing probes for the non-destructive visualization of traces from times gone by hidden in the ground.

Automotive

The automotive industry develops and manufactures vehicles, components, and mobility technologies. It demands top levels of quality, safety, and efficiency and drives innovation in electrification, lightweight construction, sensing, and automated driving.

Defence

Defense technology includes technological systems, equipment, and components designed to support national security and defense capabilities. It covers advancements in fields such as sensing, communication, vehicle systems, and protective technologies, enabling reliable surveillance, reconnaissance, and threat prevention.

Explosive ordnance detection

Today, the soil on this planet still contains weapons from previous wars, which pose a potential risk. The high-precision test instruments by FOERSTER reliably detect such metals and soil contamination. We therefore help to increase safety.

Fasteners

Fasteners are mechanical fastening components such as screws, nuts, bolts, and rivets that securely join or hold parts together. Manufactured from high‑quality materials, they provide strong performance and are essential in the machinery, construction, automotive, and many other industries.

Medical Technology

Medical technology develops innovative devices, systems, and materials for diagnosing, treating, and monitoring patients. It combines high‑tech, precision, and safety to deliver reliable solutions for hospitals, research institutions, and medical applications.

Metals

Metals are versatile materials offering high strength, conductivity, and formability. They are used across nearly all industries—from engineering and automotive to energy, construction, and high‑tech applications. Their properties make them ideal for structural components, precision parts, and functional elements.

Oil and Gas

The oil and gas industry extracts, processes, and transports energy resources for global markets. It demands high levels of safety, efficiency, and reliable technologies in exploration, production, and infrastructure.

Petrochemicals

The petrochemical industry converts crude oil and natural gas into chemical building blocks for plastics, solvents, fibers, and many industrial products. It requires high efficiency, safety, and reliable technologies in production and processing.
