INTRODUCTION

The trading company ENGINEERING OSTRAVA a.s. was established in 2003 as a limited liability company. In the same year we concluded the agency contract for the Czech Republic with the German company  Schmiedewerke Gröditz GmbH, which is a a leading European manufacturer of high grade forged steel. We began selling tool steel to the leading domestic steel service centers. At the same time, we developed the sale of metallurgical rolls to all important rolling mills of long products in Poland. We started to buy hot rolled round bars and billets from these mills and sell them to the domestic service centers and die forging shops.

In 2005 we opened the stock of hot rolled round bars in Ostrava-Vitkovice and extended our range of stock to all common construction qualities. Since 2007, we have been selling to the Slovak market as well. In 2009 the company was transformed into a joint stock company. In the same year, we concluded an exclusive distribution contract for forged tool steel in the Czech and Slovak Republic with the company Schmiedewerke Gröditz GmbH and we became a leading wholesale supplier. The cooperation with the largest service center in the CR, the company  JKZ Bučovice a.s., allows us to distribute the tool steel to the end customers.

To extend our range of stock of rolled round bars to larger diameters, we began to buy them from the company  MORAVIA STEEL a.s. as well. Currently we have structural steel bars in diameters 40 – 240 mm in stock. In 2010 we moved our stock and office to the Průmyslový areál Ostrava-Martinov.
