merger, acquisition and takeover
Duisburg, April 04, 2007 - The Dutch Klöckner
& Co subsidiary ODS B.V. has concluded a contract for the acquisition
of the Dutch distribution company Teuling Staal B.V. Teuling Staal 
specialises in the distribution of high-alloy special steels.
The company’s product portfolio focuses on duplex and super-duplex 
steels. These high-alloy special steels are used for conduit piping 
in the oil and gas, chemical and petrochemical industries on account 
of their corrosion resistance. The distribution company Teuling Staal
with some 16 employees has its head office at Barendrecht near 
Rotterdam. Specialising in special steels, the company achieved sales
of some EUR 14 million in 2006.
With this acquisition the Dutch country operation ODS B.V. with its 
head office at Barendrecht will further expand its extensive product 
range. "Teuling Staal fits extremely well into our acquisition plan. 
The company is very well positioned in its special product niche, and
its range of high-alloy special steels will outstandingly complement 
the products offered by our subsidiary in the Netherlands," said Dr. 
Thomas Ludwig, Chairman of the Board of Management of Klöckner & Co 
AG.
