Custom-made steel profiles: all the advantages
The use of customized steel profiles offers our customers several competitive advantages in terms of performance, costs, quality, and environmental sustainability.
Performance advantages
Better integration
Custom profiles are designed to perfectly match the specific requirements of a project or application, in turn ensuring greater compatibility with other components.
Maximum efficiency
By tailoring size, shape and features, custom profiles can improve the efficiency of the production process or final application, and lead to better overall performance.
Customization
The use of unique custom-designed profiles allows companies to offer solutions that are increasingly tailored to their customers’ needs, and to stand out from their competitors.

Economic benefits
Waste reduction
Custom profiles are made by forming the material and not by removing it, significantly reducing raw material waste and loss.
Reduced machining time
If we consider the quality levels of the profiles supplied, additional surface machining is not required for many applications.
Cost reduction
Waste reduction, combined with reduced machining, can lead to significant cost savings. Depending on the quantity, geometry and type of steel, these savings can be as much as -73% than profiles machined from a round bar.
Qualitative advantages
Better mechanical and metallurgical properties
With this forming technology, profiles feature greater strength (tensile strength and yield strength), increased hardness, increased toughness, and grain strengthening.
Excellent surface finish
The special production cycle delivers excellent surface finishing.
Narrow dimensional and straightness tolerances
Special custom profiles have precise sizes and minimal tolerances, varying depending on the forming technology used.
Environmental benefits
Sustainability
Reducing raw material waste and loss ensures more sustainable resource management.
Energy efficiency
Reducing the subsequent machining operations leads to lower overall energy consumption.
Recyclability
Steel is a 100% recyclable material. The use of custom steel profiles makes end-of-life product recycling easier, contributes to a circular economy and reduces the demand for new raw materials.
