Transformation

Three trends are changing our future – and offer us potential to grow. The reasons for these developments are manifold.

By using innovative BlackBoxX containers, around 8,000 truck journeys totaling approx. 6.4 million kilometers per year have been successfully transferred from road to rail.

The mobility revolution towards more sustainable cars is increasing demand for new materials and strong partnerships. These conditions are ideal for thyssenkrupp Materials de Mexico, which is currently building an additional state-of-the-art site for this purpose.

thyssenkrupp Materials Services aims to operate on a climate-neutral basis, reduce CO2 emissions in the supply chain and enforce social standards. To utilize synergies, the company has developed a structured and joint approach for its distrubution business in Europe: "Green Excellerate".

Supply chains are complex entities: If one part doesn't work, the flow stops. But how do you prevent this from happening?

What does MaaS actually stand for? "Materials as a Service" is the strategy we are pursuing on our transformation journey. It helps us to smartly link our materials distribution business and our supply chain services

We have a clear plan for the future: we not only want to continue to be the best materials seller, but also to become the best materials supplier. We call this strategy "Materials as a Service".
