Global aluminum Altek Europe is part of the Harsco Group with a global footprint and two key offices in the UK and USA, presenting a potential for cross-border expansion and multi-region service offerings to aluminum producers and foundries.

Dross and scrap leadership Strong specialization in dross and scrap processing technology including TARDIS cooling, electromagnetic stirring, and specialized containers positions Altek as a value-added supplier for efficiency improvements and waste reduction in aluminum processing.

Engineering expertise With engineers averaging extensive international experience and a proactive R&D program, there are opportunities to upsell advanced automation, predictive maintenance, and custom system upgrades to existing and new customers.

Industrial automation Tech stack and automation focus (3D design, embedded control systems, and plant-level solutions) align with manufacturers seeking modernization; potential pilots or integrations with ERP/MMS, IoT monitoring, and digital twin initiatives.

Growth through services Two-region presence, ongoing projects in the UK facility, and a history of significant acquisitions suggest opportunities to offer on-site installation, training, after-sales support, and performance-based service contracts to sustain revenue.
