BIKAR ZONE EAST: The future of metal trading

With the construction of the world’s largest fully automated cutting centre for non-ferrous semi-finished metal products, we are making a bold statement for innovation, investment, and growth. Spanning 22,000 square metres, the facility in Thuringia will bring the metal trading of the future to life by the end of 2025. The planned facility features an intelligent network of high-bay warehouses, robots, automated guided vehicles and high-tech saws, setting new standards in the metal industry and beyond. 

BIKAR ZONE EAST
