History

1971

Innovative Roots

Roman Arnoldy continued innovating at Triten, then known as the Texas Alloy Products Company. Triten went on to develop and operate under numerous patents and proprietary products and processes, including the T-200X weld-overlay product, which became the worldwide standard for hardfaced steel plate. Triten also developed an industry revolutionizing bulk-welding process and, in the 1980s, the TAPCO Slide Valve, which can still be found in FCC units around the world.

1995

IAG

In 1995, John Arnoldy co-founded the International Alliance Group to deliver project management and execution services for refinery and FCC revamps. Over the years, IAG has successfully completed over 60 FCC projects.

Triten Expansion
