voestalpine has produced the world's first high-quality "green" wire rod from hydrogen-reduced pure iron and scrap at its Donawitz site. The hydrogen-reduced pure iron was produced in the Hyfor pilot plant, while the landmark melting was carried out in the Group's own Technikum Metallurgie (TechMet) research facility, a unique complete steel plant in miniature.

13 voestalpine employees recently took part in a sporting charity campaign as a team. They cycled for 12 hours on ergometers. A total of 16 teams competed against each other and collected donations for a good cause.

In total, all four apprentices at the two sites successfully completed their final apprenticeship examinations. These successes underline not only the commitment and diligence of the apprentices, but also the excellent training opportunities offered by voestalpine Wire Rod Austria, the modern wire rolling mill in St. Peter/Freienstein, and voestalpine Wire Austria, the premium supplier of wire in Bruck an der Mur.

A company visit to voestalpine Wire Austria in Bruck an der Mur marked the start of a five-year cooperation in the form of a class sponsorship with the first class of the mechatronics specialization (1BHME) at HTL Kapfenberg. The focus is on practical experience for the students.

The wire trade fair, the world's leading trade fair for wire & cable, will once again open its doors at the exhibition grounds in Düsseldorf from April 15 to 19, 2024.

Immerse yourself in our world of in-depth metallurgical expertise at our newly designed trade fair stand and see our sustainable material solutions and innovative research and development opportunities for yourself.

The digital transformation is shaping our working world. We use digitalization for change and use data governance to optimize the quality of our wire products.

From the billet to the finished wire product - we are revolutionizing wire testing technology with a cross-border approach. This breakthrough not only optimizes quality assurance, but also offers our customers in the wire industry decisive advantages.

After two exciting days of inspiration and technological insight, we look back on a successful Wire Tech Day in Katowice. The Marriott Hotel provided the backdrop for innovative presentations, stimulating discussions and ground-breaking developments in the world of wire technology.

There was no shortage of highlights at the event - get exclusive insights into two successful days in Katowice at Wire Tech Day here.

The IATF (International Automotive Task Force) certificate is an internationally recognized standard that was developed specifically for the automotive industry and places strict requirements on quality management systems in the supply chain to ensure the highest product quality and process reliability. voestalpine Wire Germany has successfully passed this demanding test, underlining our commitment to continuous improvement and the highest quality standards.

voestalpine Wire Austria strengthens wind energy and supplies high-quality prestressing steel wire for the prestressing of concrete segments, especially for wind towers erected using hybrid construction methods. The outstanding properties of the prestressing steel wire not only guarantee a robust construction, but also offer decisive customer benefits.

voestalpine Wire Technology not only stands for the production of high-quality wire solutions, but also for the increased use of sustainable energy sources in production. An important step in this direction is the recent installation of three photovoltaic (PV) projects (2 PV systems, in 3 different construction modes) in addition to the two existing hydropower plants at the Bruck/Mur site, which will increase in-house electricity production to a remarkable 40% and drive forward the reduction of CO₂ emissions.
