"In a constantly changing world, we remain the leading warehouse keeper" is an excerpt from the vision of the BUHLMANN GROUP. The Bremen-based company proves this once again and, with the acquisition of Barthel Kesselrohre Boilertubes GmbH, continues to expand business and customer areas as well as storage capacities.

"Barthel is an excellent fit for us: Premium goods and service have the same high value as in the entire group of companies", says Jan-Oliver Buhlmann, CEO at BUHLMANN. The extensive warehouse range, the high level of expertise and the customer orientation are further aspects with which Barthel has successfully positioned itself on the market.

The long-established company, based in Düsseldorf and Neuss, specializes in boiler tubes for power plants, piping systems, apparatus and shipbuilding, chemicals and petrochemicals, and environmental technology. These include seamless high-temperature and high-strength, alloyed and high-alloy steel tubes for extreme temperature and pressure loads as well as carbon steel tubes and cold-tough tubes. The service ranges from electronic certificates documenting quality, through processing, treatment and marking of the tubes, to suitable transport packaging with labelling according to customer requirements and transport route.

With this step, the BUHLMANN GROUP is taking a path to emerge stronger from the current crisis and is looking forward to the exciting challenges associated with the takeover.
