Hot strip

Steel is a product made from various raw materials. The most important of all is human ingenuity. In the laboratories and development centers of ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AG, our employees work hard to continually improve our steel products and meet specific customer requirements.

Our significantly expanded and modernized hot strip production facilities at our plants in Duisburg and Bochum play a key role in the manufacture of materials for specific applications. We produce almost 15 million metric tons of hot strip a year to the highest quality levels on three fully automatic hot wide strip lines and one casting-rolling line. Our products meet the highest requirements in terms of shape accuracy and surface quality.

The casting-rolling line in Duisburg also allows the production of hot strip materials for advanced applications – for example in car manufacture. Thanks to the direct link between casting and rolling, hot strip can be produced in extremely thin sizes – a key prerequisite for the formability of high-strength steels.

Our enduring goal is outstanding technological competency, and it’s one that also benefits our subsidiaries. Hot and slit strip from ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AG are the starting materials among other things for transformer components made of electrical steel, vehicle components made of hydroforming steel and cans made of tinplate.

Promoting innovation is another of ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe’s aims. We develop advanced steel grades for new applications, we refine primary and secondary steelmaking technologies, we carry out intensive research and we invest consistently in production technology. In brief, we think the future of steel – allowing you to turn opportunities into success.
