Ο The catalyst (or catalytic converter) is a device that is widely used in many vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. Its main role is to convert toxic gases such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and hydrocarbons (HC) into gases that are more environmentally friendly (CO₂, NO₂, H₂O). For this purpose, the catalyst (ceramic or metallic) is coated with noble metals (platinum, palladium, rhodium).
BEDA SA has been a pioneer in the manufacture and import of catalytic converters for over 30 years.
In 2000, in collaboration with the University of Patras and the National Center for Research and Technological Development (CERTH),BEDA developed the first and only Greek catalytic converter:) BEDA CAT..
At the same time, BEDA established partnerships with some of the biggest names in the industry, including CATCO, MAGNAFLOW, ITACAT, THREEWAY, and TES.
