About JSW Europe
Japan Steel Works Europe GmbH (JSW Europe) is the European headquarters of Japan Steel Works, Ltd., based in Düsseldorf. The company supports customers across Europe with advanced extrusion trials at its own Extrusion Technical Center in Düsseldorf. The focus is on extruders for plastics and elastomers, in particular the TEX twin-screw extruder series, as well as technology solutions for devolatilization (degassing) and compounding. In addition, JSW Europe provides support for film and sheet equipment as well as steel products from JSW and acts as a comprehensive service and support center for the region. Another key area is recycling process technology, including chemical recycling of PMMA and feeding recyclate flakes via compounders with special compactors. Customers come from plastics processing and extrusion, the film and sheet sector, recycling, and the steel industry.
