The Salzgitter Group dialogs with customers in Düsseldorf and Hannover. "MANNESMANN. Tubes." and lightweight automotive construction in steel are the Topics.

Monday, April 7, 2014, will see both the Hannover Trade Show and TUBE in Düsseldorf open their doors: Two trade fairs that have always been highly significant for the Salzgitter Group and its companies.

"MANNESMANN. Tubes." This is the motto of Salzgitter's participation in TUBE in Hall 4, Stand H42. At the leading exhibition for tube manufacturers, processors and users, Salzgitter is showcasing Mannesmann steel tube products in particular. Exhibits include SA longitudinally- and spiral-welded large-diameter pipes, pipe bends, longitudinally HFI-welded steel pipes, seamless stainless steel tubes, seamless and welded precision steel tubes as well as hydroformed components. EUROPIPE GmbH, a 50/50 percent joint venture of the Salzgitter Group and AG der Dillinger Hüttenwerke, will demonstrate the run of the South Stream Pipeline and, using a piece of pipe, the technical achievement of cold forming almost 4 cm thick sheet steel. EUROPIPE is to deliver 608 kilometers (450,000 t) of steel line pipes for the first section of the offshore pipeline.

"Integrated Industry - NEXT STEPS" is the motto of this year's Hannover Trade Show. More than ever, industrial processes need to rely on resource-conserving, standardized and flexible networking.

The Salzgitter Group and its subsidiaries are exhibiting material innovations for industry and the automotive sector at the leading "Industrial Supply" trade fair and are looking forward to engaging in intensive dialog with visitors to the trade fair, customers and partners in Hall 6, Stand F02. The focus of its trade fair presence this year is on lightweight automotive construction as, particularly in the automotive industry, resource efficiency is playing an increasingly important role. Steel as a fully recyclable material, and most particularly the innovative steel products of the Salzgitter Group, offer the optimum preconditions for conserving resources over a vehicle's life cycle.

A popular meeting venue for the steel industry and partners of the Salzgitter Group is Salzgitter AG's Customer Day on the trade fair Tuesday, on April 8, from 3 p.m. onwards in Pavillon P32.

Young people embarking their careers and young professionals can inform themselves about career opportunities in the Salzgitter Group at Stand C05, Hall 3, where information on trainee programs, Group entry positions and job opportunities is available.
