The Group's headquarters are now located in Leverkusen. In 1972, the company had become one of the largest steel rolling companies in Western Europe. In the 1980s and 1990s, the company grew again after surviving the steel crisis. At that time, the steel manufacturer introduced a new type of surface finishing process for hot-rolled steel strip. Today, the Wuppermann Group is one of the largest manufacturers of hot-dip galvanized hot-rolled strip in Europe, a major producer of high-quality tubes as well as profiles made of steel.
"For 150 years, our medium-sized family business has pursued a strategy of long-term and consistent value creation. In recent years, we have evolved from a pure steel processor to an innovation leader in corrosion protection. In addition, Wuppermann closed 2021 as the most successful fiscal year since the company was founded. This was the best start to our anniversary year that we could have wished for," says Johannes Nonn, CEO of Wuppermann AG.
