Petranix forges the future for Schmolz+Bickenbach

The annual report is intended to emphasize the company's profile as an integrated special steel group and focus on the new construction of one of the world's most modern steelworks in the south of Chicago with its image and content concept. The annual report "We forge the future" was designed in American letter format and is divided into two parts, which are connected by a hard cover: The "New Forging and Steel Plant for Sustainable Growth" brochure and the "Milestones of Operational and Technological Excellence Achieved" activity report. The brochure is designed to be used simultaneously as a special print for the opening event of the steel plant on the south side of Chicago, the agency said in a statement on Tuesday. The activity report is structured as a typical management report and includes the chapters Foreword, Management Report, Corporate Governance and Financial Report.
