Voestalpine AG

A maker of steel and high-tech metal products, voestalpine supplies railway rails, precision tubes for cars, and specialty steel for tools and aerospace, with customers across the automotive, energy, and construction industries. It was born from a 1973 merger of Austria's two biggest steelmakers, VÖEST and Alpine, later restyling its name with a lowercase 'v' for a modern look. Its roots trace to a steelworks built in Linz in the late 1930s, where the famous LD steelmaking process still used worldwide today was developed.
