## Terminology guidance

- Bodycote provides heat treatment, thermal processing and specialist materials technology services. Do not describe Bodycote as a general component manufacturer.

- HIP means hot isostatic pressing.
- Corr-I-Dur® is a proprietary Bodycote process.
- Use location pages for facility-specific service availability rather than assuming every Bodycote site provides every process.
