voestalpine Wire Rod Austria GmbH

The most modern wire rolling mill in the world

Customized solutions made of wire rod at voestalpine Wire Rod Austria - Precise. Efficient. Innovative.

voestalpine Wire Rod Austria operates the world's most modern wire rod mill at the St. Peter-Freienstein site. Since commissioning in 2016, we have been setting new standards in wire rod production and supplying international industries with high-precision wire material for the most demanding requirements.

With a diameter range from 5.00 to approx. 60.00 mm, coil weights of up to 3.0 t and the tightest dimensional tolerances, we offer customized wire rod solutions - flexibly, quickly and reliably.

Technological excellence in wire rod production at voestalpine Wire Rod Austria

Our processes are based on a fully integrated production chain that begins with the Group's own steel production. Pig iron is melted and refined in modern blast furnaces and then further processed as billets in the wire rolling mill.

Heating takes place in a natural gas-fired walking beam furnace, followed by high-pressure descaling and the precisely controlled rolling process on a single-strand wire rolling mill. Here, thermomechanical rolling produces wire products with optimum strength, toughness and hardness - perfect for cold forming. In addition, voestalpine Wire Rod Austria offers its own systems for surface and heat treatment to enable precise further processing.

Automation and efficiency at the highest level at voestalpine Wire Rod Austria

Our highly automated infrastructure guarantees efficiency and delivery reliability:

  • GPS-supported forklift navigation
  • Fully automated crane systems
  • Intelligent material flow control
  • The world's largest high-bay warehouse for wire rod coils

These systems not only enable faster processing, but also minimize storage costs and make our production particularly sustainable.
