About Salzgitter Aktiengesellschaft

Salzgitter Aktiengesellschaft (ISIN: DE0006202005, ticker: SZG.DE) is a German industrial group listed on Xetra/Frankfurt (DAX/MDAX/SDAX), with its headquarters in Salzgitter, Germany. The company traces its roots to Germany’s steel industry and has evolved into a diversified metal-and-engineering group spanning steel production, steel processing, tubes, trading, and special-purpose machinery. Its core operating footprint remains strongly anchored in the German industrial base, while its products and services are sold into a broad set of European and international end markets. ([salzgitter-ag.com](https://www.salzgitter-ag.com/fileadmin/finanzberichte/2025/gb2025/en/downloads/szag-ar2025-complete.pdf)) Salzgitter’s business model is built around several complementary divisions. The Steel Production unit includes major subsidiaries such as Salzgitter Flachstahl and Peiner Träger, producing flat steel, structural steel, and semi-finished steel products used in automotive, construction, mechanical engineering, and infrastructure applications. The Tubes business provides pipe and tube solutions for industrial, energy, and transport uses. Steel Processing expands the group further downstream with value-added products and processing services. Trading handles distribution and logistics, helping Salzgitter connect its industrial output with customers across Europe. The Technology division is led by KHS, one of the group’s most important non-steel businesses, supplying machinery and systems to the beverage industry.

Its scale, technical know-how, vertically linked operations, and broad customer relationships support its positioning in cyclical but strategically important markets. The company also benefits from exposure to sectors with persistent structural demand, including automotive supply chains, construction, energy infrastructure, and industrial equipment. At the same time, its business remains sensitive to steel prices, energy costs, raw-material markets, and general industrial activity.

In 2025, Salzgitter reported a challenging operating backdrop but pointed to earnings improvement from its P28 performance program, a turnaround in Trading, and contributions from its Aurubis stake. The group continued to advance SALCOS®, its low-CO2 steel transformation program, including tenders for photovoltaic power purchase agreements and an on-site battery storage system to secure renewable electricity supply for future production. Salzgitter also announced lower-carbon maritime iron ore transport with Oldendorff Carriers and a closed-loop circularity partnership with Volvo Cars, reinforcing its focus on emissions reduction and recycling.
