Wire processing
Continuous investment and innovation
Our wire processing offers customers a wide range of surface coating and heat treatment options. Our R&D division has developed innovations such as MARAFORMTM, SAG-Protect or SAG-Composite, which improve surface properties or save work steps. In recent years, the company has continuously invested in wire processing, including a high-bay warehouse for treated wire rod in Neunkirchen and a blasting system.
