"better together marks a significant shift in our corporate mindset.
For 125 years, our decisions have been guided by the question: Is this the way to maximum productivity?
But better together means we all have to ask ourselves every day: Am I creating the most value for the customer?, because we’re creating value for Bekaert at the same time."

Henri-Jean Velge, Group Executive Vice President


Bekaert aims to have a presence in all major world markets. In 2006, we greatly strengthened our position in Asia. We further realigned our production capacity in Europe and North America in response to changes in market demand. We increased our presence in certain niche markets and also laid the foundations for advancing our position in Russia.

We are constantly developing our global sales network to match the rapidly changing markets and meet our customer’s specific demands. Our highly qualified, specialist employees strive every day to improve performance and thus create value for customers around the world. It is here - in close collaboration with local customers - that new products and services originate. Once their success is proven, we ensure they are quickly used in many other types of applications.

Our production plants enjoy a wide geographical distribution so we can respond swiftly to customer demand. Our plants are tailored to our markets’ specific requirements, but the same high quality standards apply across the globe.

To us, doing business on a global scale has become second nature – which is not surprising, given our long international history. Over the years, Bekaert has developed the skills to adapt, integrate and organise on an international scale, which helps us to remain market leader and stay ahead of the competition - both in sales and production, and even in markets which are difficult to access. Our experience also enables us to identify and respond quickly to changes in the market.
