Berlin, January 2023: BILSTEIN GROUP, one of Germany's largest independent cold rollers, has decided to choose Vanilla Steel as its digital sales channel for excess and second-choice material.
After assessing both offline and online channels, the German producer has concluded that the most efficient way to move their excess material is through the digital platform Vanilla Steel.
As of Q1 2023 Vanilla Steel will manage the complete sales cycle of BILSTEIN GROUP’s excess material in Europe. This announcement comes after the recent expansion of services from Vanilla Steel, which are now providing logistical support and financial services to their already existing customers.

This vow of trust from a reputable company like BILSTEIN GROUP, confirms our vision and further strengthens the relationship between Vanilla Steel and the metals industry.” says Simon Zühlke, CCO and Co-Founder of Vanilla Steel
