OUR VISION
MOBILE INNOVATION FOR METAL SMELTING
A NEW APPROACH FOR THE STEEL AND METAL INDUSTRY
FOZ S.R.L. is an innovative startup founded in 2021, specializing in the development and commercialization of a process for smelting and reducing ferrous and non-ferrous metals, steel, alloys, recarburizers, additives, and waste from their processing, using a mobile Biobox system.
Biobox
INNOVATIVE STRATEGY
By optimizing the use of slag in the production process, our approach delivers significant economic, environmental, and energy benefits.
COST SAVINGS
The investment in raw materials is fully integrated into the production process, transforming it into finished products, maximizing value.
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
Materials that would typically be considered waste for disposal can be further processed, reducing waste and minimizing environmental impact.
WASTE REDUCTION
Fine particles are effectively repurposed as smelting material, significantly decreasing the overall waste generated.
DIRECT AND INDIRECT SAVINGS
The process enhances chemical efficiency, reducing energy consumption for the same output or increasing production without additional energy use.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Customers can rely on consistent product quality, with materials sourced from controlled, in-house processes.
INCREASED EFFICIENCY
The ability to mix various materials allows for the development of optimized smelting recipes, improving overall production efficiency.
SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES
This process not only boosts environmental performance but also enhances the company’s sustainability credentials.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The smelting process is optimized to make the most of energy usage, cutting waste and ensuring more efficient production.
MISSION
REDUCING WASTE, IMPROVING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
FOZ ‘s mission is to develop the best procedures to make steel and smelting productions more efficient by reducing waste and consequentlyenvironmental impact, as well as optimizing energy consumption. In the medium to long term, FOZ aims tovary the customer’s incoming materialreceiving system, with the aim of optimizing incoming quality control and maximum production yield.

THE PROJECT
NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE STEEL INDUSTRY
Foz aims to create new opportunities within the melting industry by introducing efficiency and sustainability benefits to the steel and foundry sectors. The key objectives are to:
- Leverage the unique characteristics of materials
- Customize the treatment of various materials
- Reduce oxide formation
No company on the market offers an engineering process identical or similar to the one patented and licensed to FOZ.
SERVICE DESCRIPTION
FROM MOBILE SYSTEM TO CUSTOMER-SUPPORTED MELTING
Foz transports the mobile system to the customer’s site, provides the BioBox, and oversees the filling operations. Once filled and sealed, the BioBox is delivered to the customer, who then integrates it into their production process.
RESEARCH AND CERTIFICATIONS
INNOVATION WITH COMPLETE SAFETY
Our projects are supported and validated by studies conducted in collaboration with various universities.
Every material placed in the BioBox will be thoroughly analyzed and certified in university laboratories. Additionally, all recipes involved in the process will undergo scientific testing to ensure both safety and optimal final results.
PARTNERS
The innovative process proposed by FOZ is made possible by the collaboration with partners who together with us have tackled and solved every aspect of the process.
