In an increasingly unpredictable world where resources are becoming scarcer, demand and supply chains must be managed as proactively, efficiently and resiliently as possible. This is exactly how we at thyssenkrupp Materials Services are shaping the materials business of the future. We are the biggest mill-independent materials distribution and service provider in the western world. As such we hold a key position in the economic fabric. Aware of this responsibility, we want to create a world in which resources are used in the best possible way – for shared success and a sustainable tomorrow. That's why we are continuously evolving from a classic materials distributor into an intelligent, sustainably focused supply chain manager. From a pure supplier of materials and services we are becoming a company that offers materials as a service – "Materials as a Service". The needs of our customers are crucial here, as they are at the center of all our activities. An essential element is the intelligent networking of all relevant partners and parameters. We think and develop new, forward-looking ecosystems to manage even the most complex flows of goods for our customers intelligently and in a way that conserves resources. Digitization is the operational driver for this, our sustainability claim the driving force. We are shaping our future and that of our industry with foresight.
