Schuler to be renamed ANDRITZ Schuler
More than a decade after acquiring Schuler, the world's leading manufacturer of presses for the automotive industry, ANDRITZ is taking the next step towards integration: Schuler will be renamed ANDRITZ Schuler.
The joint market presence increases transparency and makes it easier for customers to access integrated solutions.
“Schuler” will remain as a product brand and will continue to be maintained as ANDRITZ Schuler presses. The names of the Schuler Group companies are given the prefix ANDRITZ.
This integration also documents Schuler's transformation from a press manufacturer to an integrated solution provider in forming and handling technology. This makes it easier for customers to recognize integrated solutions from ANDRITZ and gives them faster access to expertise in the group.
“The number of joint projects with other ANDRITZ companies has increased significantly as a result of our battery activities. The customer benefits of our joint presence are evident,” said Martin Drasch, CEO of Schuler.
Joachim Schönbeck, President and CEO of ANDRITZ, added: “Schuler is a name that stands for top performance in press engineering, and our customers can continue to rely on that in the future.”
