About us
Stahlform Schulte GmbH is a family-owned company founded in 1990 in Arnsberg in the Sauerland region, specializing in cutting and forming steel blanks as well as the storage and handling of coils and slit strip. In production, the company manufactures precision laser cuts up to 3000 x 1500 mm and oxy-fuel flame cuts from heavy plate up to 2500 x 12000 mm with material thicknesses of 10 to 160 mm. The service portfolio also includes embossing of logos and inspection tags on hydraulic presses up to 150 t, drilling, edge bending, and heat treatment in an in-house annealing furnace up to 1200 °C. Surface finishing such as sandblasting, painting, and galvanizing is carried out by external partners. The steel logistics center offers 6,000 m² of storage space with a capacity of 25,000 t of coils and 5,000 t of slit strip, with rail access and just-in-time delivery. Customers include companies from steel processing, steel trading, and lifting gear and chain manufacturing.
