WHAT WE DO

HOW WE WORK

For over 135 years, we have been transforming steel

wire and applying unique coating technologies.
Every day, we continuously improve both the bulk
and the surface properties of our steel wire products.

Integrity, trust and resilience - these values are the

essence of our corporate culture. They bring our
30 000 employees worldwide together in one team,
and they drive all of our business relationships.

We draw steel wire in different strengths and

diameters, even as thin as ultrafine fibers of one
micron. We bundle the wires into cords, ropes and
strands, profile them into complex shapes, weave
or knit them into fabric, or process them into an end
product. Depending on your application, coatings
are applied which reduce friction, improve corrosion
resistance, or enhance adhesion to other materials.

We believe in lasting relationships with our

customers, suppliers and other stakeholders, and we
are committed to delivering long-term value to each
of them.

DID-Bekeart-XX-Brochure 2015_210x317.indd 1

So if you believe in collaboration as the driver of a

sustainable, successful partnership, then we can be
better together.
