What Hp Staal B.v. does
HP Staal B.V. is a Dutch private limited company specializing in the sale, rental, and custom processing of new and used structural steel for B2B customers in construction, infrastructure, shipbuilding, and mechanical engineering. Founded on 1 April 1981 by Hemmer and Pothuizen in Wilnis, the company has been a subsidiary of Van Schie Groep (Mijdrecht) since 2008 and relocated its headquarters in August 2013 to a 60,000 m² (6-hectare) industrial site in Vianen, situated between highways A2 and A27 in the Netherlands. The company explicitly serves business customers only and does not sell to private individuals.
The product portfolio spans four core categories: steel girders (HEA, HEB, HEM, IPE, UNP, INP profiles from 80 to 1000 mm), steel pipes (114.3 mm to 1420 mm diameter), steel sheet piling (Larssen and AZ profiles), and steel dock boards (5000x1000 mm to 6000x2000 mm). HP Staal differentiates on inventory depth and on-site custom processing capability, operating a MEBA Steel 1250 fully computer-controlled band saw and 25-ton overhead cranes that enable sawing, burning, cutting, and welding up to extra-long 30-meter products, with optional footplates, lifting eyes, and reinforcement partitions. A parallel used-steel and second-choice steel line (minimum quality ST37) is sold with stringent quality control.
HP Staal monetizes through one-time sales of new and used steel, a subscription-style rental offering (standard 8-week term with weekly extensions) targeting temporary construction projects, and bundled custom-fabrication services. Pricing is entirely quote-based with no public list. Go-to-market is hybrid: direct enterprise field sales targeting Dutch construction companies and infrastructure firms, combined with inside sales via phone, email, multilingual website (Dutch, German, English), and a structured tender/offerte request process. Distribution is direct from the Vianen warehouse, with loading, unloading, and handling included in rental fees and franco (free) delivery options available. The customer base includes large Dutch contractors (Heijmans, Ballast Nedam, KWS, Vink Bouw), the parent Van Schie Groep, and adjacent-vertical buyers such as De Vries Scheepsbouw (shipbuilding), Safe (port infrastructure), and Janson Bridging (modular bridging).

Hp Staal B.v. competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Klöckner & Co: One of Europe's largest steel and metal distribution groups with extensive processing and fabrication services. Highly comparable to HP Staal as both operate a stockist-plus-fabrication model serving construction and industrial customers across Europe.
- Voortman Steel Group: Dutch-based manufacturer of structural steel processing machinery and provider of fabricated steel products. Comparable to HP Staal in the structural steel processing/fabrication niche, particularly for girders and beams used in construction.
- Van Leeuwen Pipe and Tube Group: Dutch-headquartered specialist distributor of steel pipes and tubes, with stockholding and value-added processing. Directly comparable to HP Staal on product type (steel tubes), Dutch origin, B2B stockist model, and value-added services.
Broad incumbents
- Thyssenkrupp Steel Europe: Major German flat steel producer supplying construction, infrastructure, and industrial customers across Europe. Adjacent incumbent whose flat and long products feed into the same end-markets HP Staal serves via its Dutch stockist business.
- ArcelorMittal: World's largest steelmaker with significant European operations and distribution. A broad incumbent whose long products, sheet piling, and structural steel overlap with HP Staal's inventory, though at much larger scale and broader geographic reach.
- SSAB: Nordic specialty steel producer focused on high-strength structural and wear-resistant steel. Comparable to HP Staal in serving infrastructure and construction end-markets, but as a primary mill rather than a stockist/fabricator.
- NLMK: Russian-headquartered global steelmaker with European distribution and processing operations. Overlaps with HP Staal on flat products and structural steel, though primarily as a mill rather than a Dutch-focused stockist.
- Voestalpine: Austrian steel and technology group producing high-quality sections, plate, and specialty steel for construction and infrastructure. Comparable to HP Staal as a structural steel supplier to the European construction ecosystem, but as a vertically integrated producer rather than a stockist.
- Tata Steel Europe: Major European integrated steelmaker producing a broad range of flat and long products. Overlaps with HP Staal as an upstream-and-overlapping steel supplier serving the same Dutch/European construction customer base, but at vastly larger scale and vertical integration.
- Salzgitter AG: German integrated steel producer and processor with a broad portfolio of sections, plates, and tubes. Overlaps with HP Staal on structural sections and tubes distributed through European trading channels.
