</p> </div> <p>It is both our heritage and our future because having good ideas is not enough. It’s transforming those ideas into innovative solutions that turns success into leadership.</p> <p>Midrex has built its business on a “renewable technology” concept, a self-sustaining cycle that blends science, engineering, and real-world experiences to continually renew and improve our products and services.</p> <p>Research & Development creates and refines knowledge and proves its feasibility. Engineering converts the knowledge into practical products that address specific customer needs, which have been identified by Sales & Marketing. Technical Services manages the two-way technology exchange with customers while Global Solutions works with plant personnel to diagnosis issues and implement improvements. The results are fed back to R&D to use in renewing and expanding the technology base.</p> </div> </section> <section class="charts onscreen"> <div class="wrap"> <div class="rd-cycle"> <div class="rd-chart"> <div class="rd-logo"> <img src="/ui/svg/logo_midrex-technology.svg" alt="Midrex Technology"> </div> <div class="rd-label label-1">Innovation</div> <div class="rd-midstep midstep-1"> <span>Engineering</span> <span>Proprietary Equipment</span> </div> <div class="rd-label label-2">Design</div> <div class="rd-midstep midstep-2"> <span>Marketing</span> <span>Plant Sales</span> <span>Construction Partners</span> </div> <div class="rd-label label-3">Execution</div> <div class="rd-midstep midstep-3"> <span>Technical Services</span> <span>Midrex Global Solutions</span> <span>Process Licensees</span> </div> <div class="rd-label label-4">Improvement</div> <div class="rd-midstep midstep-4"> <span>R&D Technology Development</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section class="content-column content"> <div class="wrap"> <div class="intro"> <p>World Class Facilities & Equipment</p> </div> <p>Over the years, the facility housing the Midrex research & development activities have been relocated, modified, and upgraded several times.
