Genuine Hardox® steel is both hard and tough

Hardness provides extreme wear resistance.
Toughness makes it possible to bend and form the steel plate.

Hardox® wear plate can take high impact forces without denting. When a heavy object hits the plate the force is distributed and doesn’t leave any permanent deformation.
The absence of reinforcements makes the container stronger since the plate can flex and absorb the blow.
