ThyssenKrupp Magazine
Sustainability was the theme uniting all the topics
covered in the entire edition of the Thyssen
Krupp Magazine that appeared before year’s
end. The issue contained a number of examples
illustrating how ThyssenKrupp works on sustainability
while maintaining a future-oriented approach:
hydroforming uses water pressure to
form the hardest steels, and the new FR30 steel
resists fire for half an hour; the concept of the
TWIN elevator (two elevator cabs arranged one
above the other in the same shaft) is revolutionizing
the way elevators operate; and new sheet
piling stabilizes dikes over long periods. All
these examples prove one thing: ThyssenKrupp
develops products that save resources, energy
and money. As you can see, at ThyssenKrupp
we keep the goal of sustabinability in the forefront
of everything we do.

“If you want to get things moving, you had better get moving yourself”
was the motto for the ThyssenKrupp Magazine edition that appeared in the
summer of 2003. As the Chairman of the Executive Board, Prof. Dr. Ekkehard
D. Schulz, put it: “We have to bring movement into thinking.” You can find out
what he means in the issue’s 20 articles, which profile such diverse innovations
as an escalator up a mountainside in Toledo, the ultimate in yachts from
Blohm + Voss, a water roller coaster with ThyssenKrupp-built steel pylons,
and large anti-friction bearings from Rothe Erde that do the most technically
sophisticated milling jobs. Other examples of how the company is delivering
innovation? In Asturia, we are developing a moving walkway that changes
speeds; in England, our rails are an integral part of a new high-speed rail
line, and in Scotland we are restoring the legendary Forth Rail Bridge.
Through its unique expertise ThyssenKrupp is becoming an indispensable
partner for auto makers, not least thanks to Simultaneous Engineering techniques
that save time and money. We are also the most important partner in
a very different line of endeavor – as tour sponsor for the German cult band
PUR. A profile of the group’s lead singer, Hartmut Engler, also makes for interesting
reading in the summer 2003 edition of the ThyssenKrupp magazine.
