Stalatube’s new ‘best in class’ production facility for manufacturing stainless-steel tubes in special sizes and further processed stainless-steel products is moving into the ramp-up phase.
The investment in Lodz (Poland), together with a new production line in Finland, will enhance the company’s competitiveness through capacity increases and significantly shortened delivery times.
It will boost Stalatube’s production of tailored-size I-beams and further processed products, such as stainless-steel hollow sections, both of which are intended for demanding structural applications.
The production of pre-fabricated components for the growing transportation sector will also be expanded.
Jukka Nummi, Stalatube’s CEO (
www.stalatube.com), said: “Our strategy is to be closer to our clients and very flexible in meeting our customers’ needs.
“Tailoring products to meet the exact end-user requirements translates into savings in material and transportation costs and cuts down the time needed for further processing at the end client.
“Stainless steel is practically maintenance-free. Its competitive life-cycle costs open up significant opportunities for our stainless-steel products in areas such as transportation, oil and gas, construction and other demanding end-uses.”
