We’re a leading provider of systems for industrial plants and infrastructure systems worldwide. Leveraging innovative products and process technologies, we not only build and commission state-of-the-art plants and systems for end customers but also operate and maintain industrial facilities over their entire lifecycles.
Jens Michael Wegmann, CEO
With our intelligent solutions and services, we’re creating measurable customer value. Our people possess the outstanding expertise in processes and technologies needed to increase productivity, quality and competitiveness. Our comprehensive solutions for the water, iron and steel, mining, infrastructure, pulp and paper, cement and shipbuilding industries are enabling customers in those areas to reduce their environmental footprint and conserve resources.
Water is a prime example of the success of our approach. Leveraging in-depth process expertise and cutting-edge products for integrated water processing – covering everything from water supply, treatment and reuse to closed-cycle systems, ultrapure water production, effective wastewater management and sludge residue treatment – we’re helping municipalities and industrial companies meet their needs over the entire water cycle.
In the steel industry, we’re supporting customers’ long-term competitiveness by decreasing their dependence on existing sources of raw materials, cutting their costs through process optimization and helping them reduce their environmental footprint on a sustainable basis through the development of innovative processes and technologies. Our lifecycle support services – which encompass everything from initial consulting, planning and training to the implementation of IT solutions – maximize plant availability, minimize downtimes and optimize productivity. Plant monitoring, proactive maintenance and rapid spare-parts supply round out our service offerings.
Our integrated approach has already made our Metals Technologies, Water Technologies and Industrial Technologies Business Units world leaders in their areas. Standardized solutions based on Siemens products, systems and processes – coupled with a growing worldwide demand for ecofriendly, resource-saving solutions, system upgrades and support services for plants throughout their entire lifecycles – will drive our growth and market penetration in the future.
