history
In 1908 Georg Steuler developed the world's first acid-resistant putty (potassium water glass putty ) and thus laid the foundation for Steuler industrial plants (until 2010). The “Steuler Towers” built on the basis of this putty enabled the large-scale production of nitric and sulfuric acid for the first time. The next step in development was the manufacture of refractory products.
Today the company is one of the providers of material development and lining technology. The group is one of the world's leading providers in the areas of industrial corrosion protection and plant construction / environmental technology.
In 2010, parts of the Keramchemie Siershahn (formerly KCH Group GmbH ) were integrated into the group and the corrosion protection area was bundled under the new name STEULER-KCH GmbH.
Locations
In the Westerwald - between Cologne and Frankfurt - there are three locations of the group within a radius of ten kilometers. In Höhr-Grenzhausen , the headquarters of the holding company is located in the historical factory buildings from the time when Steuler-Industriewerke GmbH was founded (until 2010). In addition to the Westerwald locations in Siershahn and Höhr-Grenzhausen, a third location was officially opened in the Westerwald in September 2015. The refractories plant in Breitscheid has been part of the Steuler group of companies since 2017

Plastic pipes and columns as well as plastic containers are manufactured, which consist of corrosion-resistant plastics on the inside and are coated on the outside with fiberglass-reinforced synthetic resins.
The Steuler Group invested ten million euros in the plant and, when choosing the location, relied on the good infrastructure in the region in the Kannenbäckerland and the favorable location between the two company headquarters in Höhr-Grenzhausen and Siershahn.

In 2012 the company received the “Interior innovation award 2012” for the “ORGANIC SENSE” tile series. Most recently, Steuler-Fliesen won the “Excellent Product Design- Bath and Wellness” award in 2016 with the reasoning: “Every tile from the Soft Glazes collection is unique. As if applied by hand, the shimmering layers of glaze run delicately into one another, which creates tasteful pastel tones in a modern and extremely decorative way. In this way, a uniquely elegant decoration for the wall is created. A perfect interplay of color, shape and structure "
North German Steingut AG
The North German faience AG based in Bremen heard after the acquisition of a majority stake on 1 January 2001 by the Steuler industry Werke GmbH (from 2010 Steuler Holding GmbH) of Steuler tiles group.

STEULER-KCH
Parts of the former Keramchemie (KCH) with headquarters in Siershahn Germany were integrated into the Steuler group of companies in 2010. Since then, the corrosion protection business has been operating under the name STEULER-KCH GmbH. Säurebau subsidiaries in Austria, Poland, Italy and China were also connected to the units already in existence in Australia, France, Sweden, Spain, Morocco and Mexico. The main area is containers, apparatus and special constructions made of glass fiber reinforced plastic. Today STEULER-KCH specializes in industrial linings, apparatus construction and swimming pool construction. In 2013, STEULER-KCH built a new assembly and storage hall at the headquarters in Siershahn. In 2015, another production facility for the plastics technology business area was built in Mogendorf. At this location, tanks, apparatus and piping systems are mainly produced from glass fiber (GRP).
Plant construction
Steuler Anlagenbau is a subsidiary of the Steuler Group. Plant construction has been an independent business unit with its location in Höhr-Grenzhausen and global cooperation partners since 1965. Steuler Anlagenbau constructs various plant systems, combined with environmental technology.
Regeneration and wastewater technology
The subsidiary constructs regeneration systems which continuously treat water, acids, alkalis and metals from process solutions and feed them back into the production process, thus reducing operating costs and avoiding environmental pollution. With these system modules, the required process technology can be designed and installed in a future-proof manner, also with regard to the accumulation of residues and emissions.
Catalyst technology
The catalyst technology is mainly used in greenhouses, where the exhaust gases are used to recover CO2 . Since 1980, SCR and oxidation catalytic converter systems have been developed with which the pollutants NOx , CO , CHx and dioxides are transferred into the natural components of the atmosphere.
Surface treatment
The surface technology used by Steuler is used for chemical, mechanical or galvanic pretreatment of metal surfaces. Here acid is used in the process to remove scale and other contaminants from stainless steel surfaces, which leads to a reduction in NOx .
Sponsorship activities
Since 2011, Steuler involved in the initiated by the Federal Government Germany scholarship and to sponsor a student at the WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management . The Deutschlandstipendium supports students with a monthly amount of money. Half comes from the federal government, the other half from private donors. The promotion of committed young talent is also an important concern for the Steuler Group.
The group sponsored equipment and participation of an employee of Steuler Anlagenbau GmbH in the Ironman in Hawaii in 2012 and 2015.
