Over the decades, ownership and name changed again and again. Its present name, the company since 1993. Then bought Juergen Grossmann, CEO of RWE now, the steel mill for the price of two symbol DM
A year later, production was switched from the blast furnace on the DC electric arc furnace. Since then, instead of steel from raw materials like coal and iron ore is produced from scrap. 140 tonnes are processed per hour in the green electric furnace, which has become the symbol of the company. He is in the middle of the image to see and be seen on the rising smoke. Besides, other manufacturing facilities to Georgsmarienhütte, as the final operations of the electric furnace. In them, the steel will be checked and loaded.
In the hall above the left half of the companies is the final rolling mill, in the smaller building right next to it is ground and polished steel bars. The bright steel is produced, among other things for the automotive industry. This industry is in addition to their supplier industries forgings, springs and roller bearing industry is among the main customers of the steel mill.
