ThyssenKrupp Stainless AG is expanding its service offering and developing new markets. As part of this, a new service centre was officially inaugurated on 9 November 2006 in Poland. ThyssenKrupp Stainless Polska, a subsidiary of ThyssenKrupp Stainless International GmbH, is based in Dabrowa Górnicza (near Katowice) and will mainly serve the Polish market, where demand for stainless steel flat products is growing. Supplies to the Baltic states will also be made from this location. ThyssenKrupp Stainless Polska in Dabrowa Górnicza will process and distribute the entire ThyssenKrupp Stainless product range. It has cut-to-length and slitting lines as well as modern surface grinding/polishing equipment. In addition to business with flat products, ThyssenKrupp Stainless Polska also offers processing services for welded stainless steel tubes. The stainless markets in Central and Eastern Europe are also served by the Hungarian service centre ThyssenKrupp Silco Inox, a further subsidiary of ThyssenKrupp Stainless International.
