  • Managing Director at Saarstahl Precision
    Jan 2026 - Present · 6 mos

    Since 1st January 2026, Saarstahl Precision has been introduced as a new family brand – the strong new unit for Saarstahl downstream processing units. The Saarstahl Precision brand brings together four long-established companies that have been recognized for decades for their quality, precision and innovative strength. As part of this repositioning, a targeted renaming of the existing companies will take place to clearly highlight their affiliation with the new family brand while emphasizing the specialization of each entity: • Drahtwerk St. Ingbert GmbH is being renamed Saarstahl Precision Wire GmbH • Saar-Blankstahl GmbH will be renamed Saarstahl Precision Bright Steel GmbH • Schweißdraht Luisenthal GmbH will be renamed Saarstahl Precision Welding GmbH • Saar-Bandstahl GmbH will be renamed Saarstahl Precision Strip GmbH This naming structure creates a consistent external appearance, reflecting our combined strength and the strategic bundling of expertise in the areas of drawn wire, bright steel, welding consumables, and cold strip.
