Only those who exhibit a constant willingness to develop can offer their customers genuine innovations. In order to meet the requirements of our business partners with respect to new developments and improvements, ThyssenKrupp’s steel service centers foster close collaboration and knowledge sharing within the ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AG group. This guarantees a broad range of advanced materials expertise.
A further factor in our constant optimization: ThyssenKrupp Steel’s own Center of Excellence for Materials, dedicated to researching and developing new steels in tune with market needs.
Unparalleled among steel manufacturers around the world, ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe has a unique research institute in the Dortmunder OberflächenCentrum: the DOC® develops existing surface technologies and also works on entirely new coatings for steel products with innovative functionality such as significantly improved corrosion protection, scratch-resistance or easy-to-clean effects.
Research, innovation and the exchange of expertise: the ideal basis for cutting-edge steel technology - and for our customers’ success.
