Flachstahl Werl
the privately run, factory-independent Steel Service Center
An important milestone for the present company was already laid by co-partner Günter Macha in 1972 with the establishment of the steel trade Hohmeier & Macha GmbH. By that, he was not only able to bring a good reputation in the steel industry into the new company, but he also brought a comprehensive potential of knowledge and experience from decades of steel expertise.
