Wieland acquires the flat rolled products production facility in Buffalo, New York (USA), from Aurubis AG. The Buffalo plant supplies its primarily U.S. customer base with strip and sheet metal made from copper and copper alloys.
This transaction is consistent with Wieland's strategy to strengthen its North American footprint and expand capabilities and capacities for semi-finished products. In combination with the modernization underway at Wieland’s rolled products facility in East Alton, Illinois, and the commissioning of Wieland's recycling center in Shelbyville, Kentucky, Wieland serves its broad customer base in the U.S. as a reliable, sustainable, and high-quality partner, enabling closed-loop supply chain opportunities and the highest recycled content products available.
The transaction officially closed on August 30, 2024.
