A CENTURY OF INNOVATIONS
Medieval hammers, driven by the power of the rivers. Inventors, ideas, patents and company foundations in the pioneering days of European heavy industry. Revolutionary progress, restructuring, new technologies, growth: We are the heirs of groundbreaking inventions, and we recognize the responsibility this brings. The voestalpine BÖHLER companies today are located on sites with a long history in steelworking.
