„To make something with iron…“ This entry into the diary of founder Karl Krämer in 1921 was the starting point of a success story born close to Siegen. Four simple words were developed during the years to four production halls for high diameter thick wall pipes for the booming energy sector. In the meantime our products cover numerous markets, applications and continents. Without passion for metallic material and precision this wouldn’t have been possible. This is where we are proud of.

Our philosophy

The EBK DNA

Requirements are high for longitudinally welded steel pipes. Materials, dimensions and production need to be perfectly in harmony in order to withstand nature’s forces from the outside and the liquids from the inside over decades. This is why we are only satisfied with perfect results. Because of responsibility for the project and the environment.

The fabrication of iron is a matter of our hearts since more than 100 years. Over generations we mastered the challenges of the world market with our experience. This was our contribution to today’s international infrastructure. Those experiences are extremely valuable for each upcoming new project.

Our products are used in real giant projects. Projects which move our world. Which make the world a better place. The proper selection of the appropriate materials and the precise production of our steel pipes ensure reliable and sustainable connections – and our research team continuously develops technical innovations for your projects.

Our responsibility

Health. Safety. Environment.

As global player we are fully aware about our responsibility for the safety and health of our employees and for the environment. This is the reason why we are actively practicing our environment and HSE philosophy, which covers our production across the entire supply chain. Thereby we ensure gentle handling of our resources and safety at the work place. Our HSE measures are officially certified and document our intention for a valuable future with healthy employees.
