From the Ilseder Hütte to Salzgitter AG
... a fascinating story with a lot of changes
Many well-known names of the German industry with long traditions find a place under the umbrella of the Salzgitter Group. Salzgitter AG has long reaching historical roots.
Our enterprise does not only date back over 150 years, it is extremely complex, too. Furthermore, corporate and production site history do not necessarily coincide, which might not be obvious at first glance.
