Welcome to SIAG Schaaf Industrie AG

History

SIAG has a long heritage in steel construction. The Ruhland factory has been committed to high quality steel processing since 1925. In 1954, plant engineering started in Siegen under the lead of Erich Klotz.

The foundation of SIAG Schaaf Industrie Aktiengesellschaft in 1999 marked the start of the group’s consolidation. The former units Lausitzer Stahlbau Ruhland GmbH and Klotz Anlagenbau GmbH in Finsterwalde were merged into SIAG following privatization in 1996 and 1997.

From the 1997 combined headcount for the two plants of around 150 people, the number of personnel doubled by the time SIAG was founded in 1999. Thereafter, the company achieved continuous growth by establishing Bohemia Stahlbau in the Czech Republic (1999), SIAG CZ (2000), Windenergietechnik GmbH (2001), SIAG France (2003) and SIAG Tube & Tower GmbH (2004). In 2008 the Group achieved net sales of 175 million Euros. In December 2008 SIAG laid the foundation stone in Egypt for the group's largest tower plant, thereby continuing their expansion and international growth. This strategy was continued by the acquisiton of SIAG Aerisyn in Chattanooga, Tennessee. SIAG Schaaf Industrie AG sets a new milestone by taking over the shipyard Thyssen Nordseewerke in Emden (Germany) and setting up Europe's largest factory for offshore components. Further business activities are planned.

By consequently focussing on our core competencies in steel construction, SIAG employs more than 2,000 employees on 10 locations worldwide.

The majority shareholders of the owner-managed family company are Rüdiger Schaaf, CEO, and Dagmar Schaaf, Member of the Supervisory Board.
