Peter is one of a select few: as a patent attorney in the voestalpine world, he protects our ideas for new technologies, materials, and much more—across Europe. He is both a thoroughbred engineer and a lawyer.
Villares Metals – our Brazilian company for special steels and alloys – has been offering customers the highest quality standards and the best services for 80 years and all over the globe. Today, Villares Metals is also demonstrating this commitment in the area of sustainability and presenting a pioneering model of the circular economy.
Whether for a new car, hydroelectric turbines, or high-bay warehouses, each of our steels is individually produced and delivers exceptional performance. What they all have in common, however, is that they meet the highest global safety, quality, and environmental standards. Michaela is one of those who never lets up in her efforts to ensure that […]
An old steel girder that once supported a building becomes part of a new bridge. This is how the steel cycle works: durable, but not infinite. At the end of its useful life, steel returns as a valuable raw material. This is crucial for green steel production, because the switch to electric arc furnaces (EAF) […]
With H2FUTURE, we are researching the industrial production of green hydrogen, which is intended to replace fossil fuels such as coal and coke in steel production in the long term. The world’s longest-operating electrolysis plant at the Linz site provides important research results for our future steel production.
Due to the switch to green steel production, significantly more scrap will be required in the future, so the sufficient availability of scrap will play an important role. For this reason, we are already conducting research in various projects into how high-quality steel grades can be produced from old scrap in the future.
Cars, machines, trains, and so much more: if we have our way, all these everyday items will be made from green steel in the future – from greentec steel. The new steel production process, which uses green electricity and a high proportion of scrap, will not only be clean and climate-conscious. It will also be […]
Christian H. likes to start his working day with humor and open communication. This creates the right atmosphere for him to concentrate enthusiastically on scientific processes. His work provides data that makes our steel products even better and more efficient.
The trend in e-mobility is clearly moving towards even more efficient steels for electric motors. So it’s a good thing that we have the right material for the high demands of electric motor construction: Our isovac® electrical steel strip contributes to particularly high efficiency and top performance of the drive system in electric cars. The […]
Since March 1, 2025, our employees worldwide have collected digital “cares” through their sporting activities in the third voestalpine cares run. These were converted into donations and are now supporting international aid projects.
voestalpine Böhler Welding and Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) are intensifying their long-standing collaboration with a pioneering research project. Under the title “Spark Science Center”, joint research is being conducted into AI-supported solutions for optimizing the welding process.
The Vienna Museum of Science and Technology has a new permanent exhibition entitled “Material Worlds”, of which we the main sponsor. We are therefore taking the opportunity to take our employees and their families on a journey through the world of materials and offer them an exciting day at the Museum of Science and Technology […]
Favorite Moments – they are the ones that shape us, that remain in our memories, that make our lives simply beautiful. The magical marriage proposal on the bridge where we met for the first time, saying goodbye to our parents on the platform shortly before leaving on life’s greatest adventure, planting a tree in the […]
Over 300 voestalpine employees took part in the 23rd Linz Danube Marathon on April 13 – either in one of the 21 employee relay teams or in an individual discipline. However, we were not only strongly represented in terms of the number of participants in voestalpine T-shirts, but also as a strong partner of the […]
Our products form the basis of modern life, but they are often invisible in everyday life . Whether in the home, in sustainable energy generation, in private transport, when travelling comfortably by plane or on the world’s railways – our products are indispensable.
Once again this year, the #voestalpinetalks took place at the Montanuniversität in cooperation with the ÖH Leoben and all student representatives. In addition to exciting insights into our special steel plant in Kapfenberg and a varied presentation on the topic of communication, students were able to talk directly to our technicians about job opportunities with […]
Months before InnoTrans, which takes place every two years in Berlin, preparations for the most important international trade fair for transportation technology are already in full swing. Two of our four divisions in particular are very busy before and during InnoTrans: the voestalpine Railway Systems business unit of the Metal Engineering Division and the Steel […]
24 nations, a round leather ball and pure emotion: the first match of the European Men’s Football Championship kicked off last Friday. Sport-loving Europe and the world are looking to Germany via TV and stream. Reason enough for us to take a look at the soccer highlight of the year. Because some of our products […]
