About us · since 1980

Steel trading in the Sauerland.
In its second generation.

INTEX is a family business with a dense network. We know the mills, the traders and the processors — and take on their surplus stock whenever material needs a buyer at short notice.

A business built on relationships.

Founded in Iserlohn in 1980, based in Menden since 1994. At its core, the business model has stayed the same ever since: strong ties to German rolling mills and steel processors — and a direct line whenever material has to be moved quickly.

Over four decades, those ties have grown into a profile of our own: today INTEX is one of the first points of contact for industrial companies looking to offload surplus stock. We buy material that would otherwise stay tied up — and find the right buyer in Europe.

“Prices move. A merchant’s word doesn’t.” — Our standard, since 1980

Today the second generation runs the company. We buy in Germany and sell across Europe. The goods sit with forwarding partners throughout the country — close to the supplier or the processor, where they logistically belong. That way we stay fast, no matter where the material is needed.

The way we work is simple: listen, respond quickly, deliver reliably. We keep our word — on deadlines just as on prices.

What matters to us

Directly reachable

One call is enough. No phone menus, no tickets — you speak straight away with someone who knows the market and can decide.

Fair purchasing

When you offload surplus stock, you need a reliable partner, not a bargain-hunter. We pay what the goods are worth — and stand by what we promise.

Long relationships

Some suppliers have been with us since the 1980s, and some customers just as long. That is no coincidence: steel trading runs on trust, not on the next quarter.

All in the family.

At INTEX the responsibilities are clearly assigned — and stay in the family: purchasing and sales, order processing, accounting. Fixed responsibilities, short paths, no being passed around.

Management

Purchasing & Sales

Buying from German rolling mills and processors, selling to customers across Europe — and setting the strategic direction of the company.

Order processing

Coordination with the forwarding warehouses, freight, deadlines and mill test certificates — so every order reaches the customer smoothly.

Invoices, payments and the day-to-day accounting — reliable and on time.
