SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH International has recently decided to invest in expanding their global Sales and Services network: in the important markets of America, Asia and Scandinavia, the subsidiary of the SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH Group is expanding their sales, warehouses and processing capacities. In taking this step, the long steel expert is shoring up their position as a reliable partner providing local supply chain solutions up to just-in-time deliveries of the special steel products from the Group’s own production units.
By expanding global sales and services presence, SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH International are strengthening customer service in strategically relevant markets. The sales offices will also push special steel from the Group’s own production, including products from Deutsche Edelstahlwerke (D), Finkl Steel (CA, US), Steeltec (CH, D, DK, SE, TR), Swiss Steel (CH) and Ugitech (D, FR, IT).
In order to meet the increasing demand of the automotive and plastic industry in China, a new warehouse for tool steel, including state-of-the-art sawing and milling technologies, was opened in Chongqing (CN). The activities at the Scandinavian sales and services location at Valkeakoski (FI) focus in particular on the precise manufacture and time-efficient delivery of stainless and engineering steels for shipbuilding as well as for the energy industry. The site also has extended sawing capacities. Effective immediately, SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH offers the entire range of dimensions in the processing of special engineering steel – up to 800 mm.
