Together we develop your best tube solution

The voestalpine Rote Group applies innovative technologies and develops both economically and technically optimized processes and machine concepts.

Our technological competence results from the ongoing further training we provide for our staff and the know-how that is bundled within our REC (Rotec Engineering Center).

Our service starts with a technical consultation process for our customers during product development and comprises design, material and tool selection as well as plant conception. The applied technologies, materials, joining and surfacing techniques must comply with our highest standards.

We provide extensive material and processing expertise and a complete process chain to our automotive customers as well as to several other industries.

As Austria’s largest industrial corporation, with approximately 50,000 employees working at 500 locations worldwide, voestalpine is a leading steel and technology group with long-standing material expertise.

The opportunity to partner and source from our sister companies provides the voestalpine Rotec Group with a leading edge: having access to a wide range of material and alloying options as well as the possibility for internal joint material development, allows us to offer unique tubular material solutions to our customers.

With the ability to use customer-tailored pre-material, we produce cold drawn precision steel tubes in Austria and further process (cut, form, weld, stamp etc.) these steel tubes as well as tubes from various other metals at all our sites worldwide. Additionally, we operate cataphoretic coating (e-coating / KTL) at our Romanian location, which we also provide as a service for externally manufactured products.

All our sites are IATF 16949 certified and operate according to the highest (automotive) standards.

From steel production to cold drawn precision steel tubes and further processed and coated tubular components, our integrated process chain allows us to provide comprehensive solutions for the unique needs of our customers from a single source.
