Consulting
Integrated consulting. International execution.
From global sourcing and supplier development to engineering complete extrusion lines – technically grounded, supplier-independent and backed by experience in Europe, Asia and North America.
Focus
Sourcing and supplier development worldwide, with a particular focus on Asia.
Supplier selection determines quality, lead time, cost and project risk. Extrusion Evolution combines technical assessment, international market knowledge and established supplier relationships in a structured sourcing process.
More than 50% savings potential
In suitable projects, international sourcing can create savings potential of more than 50%. The actual achievable savings depend on the component, specification, volumes and starting situation. The basis is verified quality and a holistic Total Cost of Ownership assessment – including service life, process stability, logistics, service, spare-parts availability and project risk.
Supplier development
Development of robust supplier structures based on technical, quality and logistics requirements.
- Qualification and communication
- Deviation and action management
- Project and quality support
- Long-term development
Sourcing in Asia and China
Long-standing relationships give us access to capable suppliers in China and other Asian markets. A local procurement specialist supports supplier communication, project coordination, quality follow-up, documentation, logistics and customs clearance. This combines attractive international sourcing opportunities with clear technical control and short communication paths.

Integrated line consulting
The best extrusion line is built from the best solutions for the specific process.
We advise and support the engineering of complete extrusion lines – regardless of where individual machines and components are manufactured. The key is to select the technically and commercially best solution for each function and combine all interfaces into a stable overall system.
This may be a cost-efficient base line from China with key components from Europe or the USA, a complete European line, or an individually engineered high-tech line. We support the project from requirements definition through engineering and supplier coordination to implementation and commissioning.
