Two companies active in the heavy industry sector and committed to finding innovative ways to serve their customers.  Realising the future potential of additive manufacturing for the production of critical spare parts, a joint venture was formed and in 2018 TheSteelPrinters was born. After multiple years of supporting ArcelorMittal maintenance operations, enabling improvements in production reliability and supply chain performance, TheSteelPrinters has grown its abilities to serve other customers and industries. ## A Global Vision with Localised Production We’re a technology-loving, global company, headquartered in Spain, with printing facilities spread across Europe. Our localised manufacturing model enables us to print close to where our customers are - and deliver parts faster than others. ## Trailblazers in 3D Printing Our team is made up of 3D printing enthusiasts, who are passionate about sharing this game-changing technology with the world. The designs we improve, the parts we create and the delight of our customers. That’s what excites us — seeing how much we can push innovation boundaries to achieve performance breakthroughs. ![about 3](https://www.thesteelprinters.com/hs-fs/hubfs/about%203.jpg?width=800&height=918&name=about%203.jpg "about 3") ## Our People Make The Difference ![STEEL_PRINTERS_WEB_003_YM4G5348](https://www.thesteelprinters.com/hs-fs/hubfs/STEEL_PRINTERS_WEB_003_YM4G5348.jpg?width=1000&height=667&name=STEEL_PRINTERS_WEB_003_YM4G5348.jpg "STEEL_PRINTERS_WEB_003_YM4G5348") ![THE_STEEL_PRINTERS_ALTA_244_YMHR1178](https://www.thesteelprinters.com/hs-fs/hubfs/THE_STEEL_PRINTERS_ALTA_244_YMHR1178.jpg?width=2000&height=1333&name=THE_STEEL_PRINTERS_ALTA_244_YMHR1178.jpg "THE_STEEL_PRINTERS_ALTA_244_YMHR1178") ### We have in-depth knowledge of heavy industry applications.
