siFramo’s Borealis Project

Sikla in South Africa is proud to showcase the “Hexene Capability” project, implemented at the PE4 plant in Schwechat, Austria.

The usage of Sikla’s siFramo, a unique modular steel framing system, played a crucial role in the success of the project. This is just one of many over 15 years which highlight the superior capabilities of siFramo and its flexible application across industries.

PE4 plant in Schwechat, Austria, is a petrochemical plant that produces various high-quality plastics, chemicals, and fertilizers. The plant management team decided to implement the “Hexene Capability” project to increase the production capacity of the plant. To achieve this, they needed a reliable and flexible framing system that could be quickly and easily assembled and disassembled. They chose siFramo because of its high suitability for their needs.

Sikla’s siFramo is a unique modular steel framing system that consists of prefabricated components that can be assembled quickly and easily, without the need for welding or drilling. It is highly flexible, allowing for easy modifications and adjustments, which is crucial for industrial plants that require frequent changes in their production lines. siFramo’s design also makes it highly resistant to corrosion, fire, and seismic events, making it a highly reliable framing system for industrial plants.

Choosing Sikla for its flexibility, ease of assembly, and resistance to corrosion, fire, and seismic events made it a smart choice across the board.

Borealis chose siFramo for their PE4 plant because of its high suitability for their needs. They needed a flexible framing system that could be easily modified and adjusted to accommodate their changing production needs. The project managers required minimal hot work or welding for safety reasons. Additionally, siFramo’s non-welded modular design allowed for quick and easy assembly and disassembly, which minimized downtime during installation and maintenance. Finally, siFramo’s resistance to corrosion, fire, and seismic events ensured that the plant’s production lines would remain safe and reliable in any situation.

siFramo was used during the “Hexene Capability” project, which was implemented at the PE4 plant in Schwechat, Austria. The project was completed successfully in 2019, and the plant’s production capacity was increased significantly. siFramo played an important role in the success of the project, as it required no hot plus allowed for quick and easy installation and modification of the production lines, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum efficiency.

Choosing Sikla for its flexibility, ease of assembly, and resistance to corrosion, fire, and seismic events made it a smart choice across the board.
