Understanding the Role of an Independent Steel Service Center

An Independent Steel Service Center like Ib Andresen Industri functions independently, implying that we are not affiliated with any steel mill or steel wholesaler. Our business model allows us to cater to a broad spectrum of companies, provided their requirements align with our operational capacity. Our longstanding independence has enabled us to successfully serve steel mills, wholesalers, and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) over the years.

Key point: An independent steel service centre does NOT engage in the sale of steel or metal materials, including coils, sheets, or steel strips. The material we handle is always owned by our clients, who source it directly from the steel mills.

Our core offerings revolve around services, not sales. These encompass coil slitting, cut-to-length, coil and finished product storage, along with comprehensive logistics solutions. Trust in Ib Andresen Industri to process and manage your steel materials with the utmost efficiency and professionalism.

Key Steel Processing Techniques: Cut-to-Length and Coil Slitting

In the steel industry, two key processes ensure we can deliver the exact product our customers need: cut-to-length and coil slitting. These processes, often performed at independent steel service centers like Ib Andresen Industri, are crucial in transforming raw steel coils into usable components for various industries.

Cut-to-Length: This process involves unrolling a large coil of steel, flattening it, and then cutting it into precisely measured sheets based on customer specifications. The cut-to-length method is the preferred choice when precise, flat sheets of steel are required, making it an essential procedure for industries that demand exact measurements and premium quality steel sheets.

Coil Slitting: Coil slitting, on the other hand, is a procedure where large steel coils are cut into narrower strips. A large master coil is unrolled and passed through sharp circular blades – known as slitter knives – positioned at the desired widths. The result is multiple smaller coils, each a strip of the original coil. These slit coils, or steel strips, are often used in applications where narrower widths are required, making this process vital for a diverse range of industries.

Whether you require precision cut-to-length sheet metal or coil slitting for narrower steel strips, trust Ib Andresen Industri. With our expertise and extensive capacity, we meet the steel industry's demands for superior quality, flexibility, and reliable delivery.
