Since 1983, the Badische Stahl-Engineering GmbH (BSE) has been acting as a service provider for increasing the efficiency and productivity in the electric steel industry worldwide.
BSE is a sister company of the Badische Stahlwerke GmbH (BSW) – one of the world’s most productive Electric Arc Furnace steel plants.
The unique partnership between BSW and BSE results in the fact that all products and services provided by BSE are based not on theory, but on more than 5 decades of own operational experience.
BSE is a part of the Badische Group, which is the market leader in production and distribution of reinforcing steel products in Germany. Badische Stahlwerke (BSW) as the unique steel making unit within the group is well-known worldwide for its operational efficiency and productivity.
In the late 1960s, BSW started to produce reinforcement steel in Kehl / Germany with an installed capacity of 300,000 metric tonnes per year. Nowadays, BSW produces more than 2 million tonnes per year with virtually the same basic conditions.
Many mini-mills have very similar equipment and material flow. But what has made BSW to one of the most efficient mini-mills of the world can be described to the point with the widely-known “Badische Philosophyâ€: Educated and well-trained people care for reliable equipment, and high productivity leading to low cost production.
