Special steel with increased yield strength

Discover our precipitation-hardened stainless steel, specially developed for exceptional performance in the most demanding environments.

If you are looking for unsurpassed hardness and corrosion resistance, our precipitation hardened stainless steel is the ideal solution to push the boundaries of carbon steel. During precipitation hardening, fine particles or precipitates, such as vanadium or niobium carbonitrides, form in the steel matrix. These precipitates lead to a higher yield strength than with conventional ferritic-pearlitic steels.

New EU steel safeguard measures change framework conditions for Steeltec

The European Union (EU) has adopted new steel safeguard measures that will enter into force on July 1, 2026. Duty-free import volumes into the EU will be reduced by 47% from 34.5 million tons to 18.3 mil-lion tons. Imports exceeding these quotas will be subject to a tariff of 50%, up from the previous rate of 25%. The measures apply to steel producers from third countries, including Switzerland, exporting products into the European Union. Steeltec AG, based in Emmenbrücke and part of Swiss Steel Group, is among the companies affected by the new regime.

Firmly anchored in the rock - Swiss Steel Group’s Top12 anchors secure a new section of road high above Lake Lucerne

100 years – that is the lifetime expected for the new section of the K2b cantonal highway between Vitznau and Gersau following its renovation and modernization. This is made possible in no small part by the Top12 special stainless steel from the Swiss Steel Group, from which the anchors for the retaining wall structure and support elements are manufactured. Over a hundred of these were drilled several meters deep into the steep rock face. They secure the walls and beams that support the new, 350-meter-long section of road. The structure is spectacular not only from a geotechnical perspective but also for everyone who drives over it and enjoys a breathtaking view of Lake Lucerne below.
