voestalpine Wire Technology focuses on three aspects in the further development of wire products: the material structure itself, the properties achievable by forming, and last but not least the properties of the wire surface.

We aim high: voestalpine Wire Technology could simply supply wire fulfilling wide requirements as defined by standards, but we can do more. voestalpine Wire Technology can deliver wire that is tailored to your manufacturing processes or to the processes and the application your customer is planning.

With our motto "One step ahead", we are constantly striving to offer improved qualities, to penetrate new segments and develop innovative products. With this in mind the construction of the new CC4 continuous casting plant started in 2019. This plant will be responsible for homologating new premium grades in particular, thereby opening up a new level of quality for our wire production.

We focus on the needs of our customers and strengthen our service skills. As a flexible, innovative and reliable partner, we ensure quality in all sales process steps.

The "Tech Day" at one of the voestalpine Wire Technology BU's most important customers, Schaeffler AG in Herzogenaurach, Germany, demonstrated how to develop customer relationships, initiate interactions and dialogues and thus make relationships more profitable for both sides.

voestalpine was represented by several group companies at this year’s Tube and Wire trade fairs in Düsseldorf, showcasing their products and solutions on the new stand for the first time.

Over 71,500 trade visitors from 134 countries came to Düsseldorf over the five days of Wire 2018, the world’s leading trade fair for wire and cable, and Tube 2018, the international trade fair for the tube industry, to find out more about the latest industry innovations and conclude business deals.
