Steel construction from a single source

In the business fields of steel building construction, steel bridge construction, façade technology and plant and apparatus construction, we realize demanding projects for industry, infrastructure and energy – technically precise, economically well thought-out and reliably implemented. From initial planning through engineering, production and assembly to interface controlling on the construction site, all phases are seamlessly integrated. Our integrated range of services includes

With three high-performance production facilities, specialised expertise and long-standing partnerships, we implement technically and economically optimal solutions for demanding construction projects. Experienced teams and the highest quality and safety standards guarantee a consistently high level of performance.

We accompany projects holistically

Our project managers and experienced engineers are on hand to provide clients, architects and project partners with expert support from the early planning stages. We use modern online project databases and digital project management systems, among other things, to support large-scale projects involving multiple trades:

  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 (ERP)
  • iTWO
  • DHS - Planning overview

These systems enable the rapid electronic exchange of plans and project data as well as transparent control of all project phases.

Manufacturing
Cutting, assembly or welding and corrosion protection of components in our own workshops
Assembly
prefabricated steel components are assembled on the construction site
Quality controls
careful interface controlling and documentation
Completion and handover
final inspection of the ready-to-use steel structure marks the end of the project

Tailor-made solutions for a wide range of applications

We provide our services in the following business areas:

Steel Building Construction

Our range of services in structural steel engineering includes heavy sectional steel constructions for scaffolding and other load-bearing structures as well as constructions with intricate architectural details.

Whether functional or creative – we realise projects for power plant construction, industrial and plant construction, hall and commercial construction as well as corporate and infrastructure construction with the highest precision and flexibility. Typical projects include railroad stations, hangars, multi-storey parking lots, sports facilities and special buildings.

Steel Bridge Construction

We produce and supply high-quality steel bridges in all common design variants such as large bridges, arch and truss bridges, trough bridges or steel composite bridges for rail and road traffic. Typical structures include pedestrian and cycle bridges, railroad bridges, road and highway bridges and canal bridges.

The Sande production site has its own rail siding, which is connected to the existing production halls. The nearby JadeWeserPort overseas port offers ideal conditions for the transportation of oversized goods and container shipments.

Further bridge services can be found at our parent company STRABAG AG. View services.

Façade Technology

Our "industrial façade" range of services covers the complete variety of building envelopes – from the functional standard version to the design object, optionally in insulated or non-insulated design, in particular made of materials such as steel or aluminum. ZÜBLIN Stahlbau undertakes the complete planning and construction of the façade in accordance with the specifications. Our range of services is supplemented by the design and structural planning or optimization of the entire façade and roof structure as well as the trades connected to the façade construction. We offer tailor-made solutions for buildings that meet the highest standards of functionality, sound insulation, energy efficiency and aesthetics.

Our services and products in the field of façade technology:

Certified safety and the highest standards

Our products and services are subject to strict internal and external quality checks. Certifications in accordance with current standards, comprehensive testing procedures and systematically documented quality assurance guarantee a consistently high level of performance across all project phases.

One example of this is the project-related external quality assurance as part of the Siemens Energy – Großgartach converter station project. The careful technical planning and execution were confirmed with positive results.
ZÜBLIN Stahlbau has also already received the IFBS Award twice, a recognition for outstanding achievements in lightweight metal construction. These awards underline our claim to set standards in steel construction in terms of quality, performance and innovative strength.
