Elcowire – now even more experienced
in metal trading

We are happy to announce that Stephan Hanel has joined our team with the overall responsibility for our entire procurement and hedging of copper and other metals. Stephan will also belong to the management team. His title is “Head of Metal Management”.

Stephan is well known in the industry and has vast experience from both physical and financial metals markets since the early 2000’s. He has held top positions in companies like Siemens, Thyssenkrupp and Diehl Brass Solutions.

Stephan will be a strong link to Elcowire´s dependable supply of copper in a world where the foreseeable copper shortage is a fact. Carbon footprint will be an highly important consideration in procurement decisions. Also, with Stephan´s experience Elcowire´s ability to offer different price models will increase.

“During my many years of experience in the metal trading world, I have created a broad view on international markets that Elcowire will benefit from”, Stephan says.

 “I am eager to contribute my experience and ideas to the company’s operations, recognizing that being part of the management team allows for more direct involvement and impact. Looking forward to gaining exposure to various aspects of the business, from procurement over finance to production, so that I can make most of my broad skill set.”

“I feel confident in joining an inspiring work environment at Elcowire, where ideas are valued and teamwork is encouraged – fostering a sense of true collaboration among colleagues”, Stephan concludes.
