Dialoging with customers and partners

At the Hannover Industrial Fair, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Heinz Jörg Fuhrmann welcomed some 400 guests at the Customers and Partners Day held by Salzgitter AG at the event. The Executive Board Chairman provided an overview of the general economic situation, which is "still fragile", as he stated, and furnished an outlook on the current business year, which he characterized as showing a stable demand for steel. Johannes Nonn, Executive Board member in charge of Salzgitter's steel business, outlined the investments in the Steel Division. Nonn stated that a further increase in the production of higher-quality steel grades was a main objective, and that special grades account for 57 percent of production in the meantime.
