Affiliated companies form powerful global network
BUTTING was founded in 1777 in Crossen on the river Oder as a coppersmith's. Since then, the family business has grown continuously and has shaped the development of metal processing with courage, care and diligence. At the same time, BUTTING has taken on board the wishes of its customers and met the requirements of the markets, thus laying the foundations for a successful company history. Today, BUTTING is one of the world's leading processors of stainless steels.
Since our foundation, we have invested not only in production facilities and the training of our employees, but also in our participation in events in the global marketplace. Within seven family generations, this German craftsman's company has developed step by step into a globally active company. The affiliated companies work hand in hand to provide optimal customer support as well as product and delivery quality under the umbrella of the BUTTING Group. Today, the seventh-generation family business is headed by President Hermann Butting.
