I have been part of Krosaki Europe since September 2022, as part of the Business and Logistics Operations team.
Being a people's person, I believe that the best way to serve customers are to build good relationships. Just like no two days are the same, no customers are the same. This hand-in-hand with Krosaki Kaizen Solutions, helps me provide the best possible service to customers.

I joined Krosaki in year 2016, and since that I have been supporting customers in Nordics in all aspects related to Refractories, such as technical, commercial, logistics, safety.
Working with KAIZEN method together with great colleagues all around the world makes my daily work and operations really enjoyable.
Let’s keep up the good cooperation with our customers and show our KEB motto “We come from the Steel” in reality.

Work at Krosaki is more interesting and challenging than I could have ever expected.
Every day is different because we continuously improve our knowledge and skills in order to offer the highest quality products and services to the customers and our business partners from the steel industry.
As a member of the Commercial and Logistics team, I am managing the supply chain process from our European and Asian partners towards the customers in the whole of Europe with a focus on the Eastern European markets. Always focussing on localised European supply.
Our goal is to keep the refractories transport efficiency at the highest level.

I joined Krosaki in November 2022 and I am very happy to be welcomed by such a multicultural and diverse group of colleagues. I have previous experience in education, customer services and sales and I am excited to join the finance department. I am looking forward to learning about the steel refractory industry and developing knowledge in the finance processes, and at the same time getting to know the team better and of course, hopefully bringing value with my previous work experience.

I am delighted to have become a member of the Krosaki Europe team at the beginning of April 2025.
Prior to joining Krosaki Europe, I worked for almost 13 years in several departments (finance, international sales) at Krosaki Harima, Japan.
The new adventure of working in Europe is challenging for me, but my motivation is to deliver our proven products and support customers through good communication.

I joined Krosaki Europe in 2019, since that moment I have been continuously learning and providing my best to our customers.
Being member of the commercial and logistic department, I closely follow all the shipments to provide the vital support for efficient stock management.
With our shift towards localised supply, I have had some amazing chances to delve into our customers’ needs and work out efficient logistic solutions for them. Every new challenge is an opportunity to work with the team here to properly address and make sure our customers are perfectly serviced. This way we are also enriching our knowledge and confidence to ensure we are a first choice for Steel manufacturers throughout Europe.

I have been specialising in refractories for almost 25 years and enjoy all aspects of supporting the steel industry. Being the Senior General Manager of the technical department I make sure our valued clients always have experienced technicians and experts you can rely on. In the same way, it is key to take the most from the wealth of knowledge at our R&D facilities and manufacturing sites to be sure the best solution is proposed to the end-user at all the times. Our goal is to make the Steel industry stronger – KrosakiSHARING!

As an industrial and casting engineer, I've been working in the refractories industry for over 10 years. I recognize myself as a link between technology and commercial side to provide the customer with the best possible and most innovative solution from Krosaki Harima. The focus of our company is promoting process stability and innovation with our high-quality products. We achieve that with a highly motivated and qualified team.
With Krosaki Harima, our customer has chosen the right partner for the future. We live our motto “We come from steel!”.

Being a ceramic engineer, I have experience of working more than 10 years in refractory industries. Now I am a member of the Krosaki Europe team and mainly responsible for furnace bricks technical services. Before joining the European team, I was working in TRL Krosaki Refractories, India. I feel privileged for being associated with this very energetic and dynamic team. I am very keen to strive for the next level of Bench-Mark performance through hand-in-hand cooperation between customers and us, using the Krosaki Kaizen Solution.

I’m a member of the Administration, Accounting, and Finance team in Krosaki distribution company in the heart of Europe, in the Netherlands.
Our focus is to serve the Iron and Steel industry in Europe, with our European Office dedicated to strengthening the steel industry to ensure all partner’s benefit. This is achieved by fully aligning refractory & steel making goals in complete clarity and transparency, which is why we say; “We come from the steel!”
As per the Krosaki Kaizen Model, we adopt this methodology in our daily routine, focusing on continuous improvement exclusively relating to the steel object, which makes us much more efficient.

I joined KEB in 2013 as a Sales Engineer serving our Dutch and Belgium customers. With my background and experiences in mechanical engineering I always try to simplify and create logic solutions. We, Krosaki group, produce high end stable products, key items in the steel production process. My goal is always to work closely with our customers understanding their challenges and providing solutions. Our customers produce high quality products creating stable conditions out of the severe steel production process conditions. Add the logistic challenges of the 21st century to this soup and you can understand this job is always exciting. I am lucky and proud to be part of the great international team which Krosaki forms, and maintaining good relations with our customers across Europe.
Ready to face the future together!

Having been born and raised in the industrial German Ruhr-area, commonly known as having a “heart of steel” due to its many steel plant sites, I have grown up appreciating the importance of steel for so many different industries and areas of our modern world. To be able to serve the refractory industry in Germany with my work at Krosaki Harima Europe B.V. therefore makes me truly proud. With a highly skilled team and lots of expertise we are not only dedicated to supplying high-quality products, but we are at the same time always striving to help our customers improve the steel making process. Our motto “We come from steel” shows that we are not just a company, but that we always see ourselves as part of the large steel community.

Born in Dunkerque in France, father from the steel industry, I grew up in this environment and acquired a passion for this field.
With more than 20 years of experience in the refractory industry serving customers, I joined KROSAKI HARIMA EUROPE at the end of 2024 as general manager for France and Belgium.
It is an exciting challenge for me, this opportunity to work with a strong team of experienced and present in Europe at the customer services and in the world.
Always passionate about development, working in partnership with customers looking for the best products, develop together.
We Come From The Steel!

I have been involved with refractories industry for almost 14 years. During that time, I have had experience in research and development, sales activities, manufacturing management, and steel production through the job assignment system to customers.
Refractories are often difficult and troubling because they are used in special environments such as extremely high temperatures, but I enjoy overcoming these challenges together with customers.
This is my first time working outside Japan, so I want to put my experience to use in Europe. I am looking forward to gaining new experience and knowledge.

Joining the Krosaki family was a significant step in my career. It was a great opportunity to return to my field of expertise in the Netherlands, given my many years working in the financial sector in Brazil. I feel privileged to be part of this company, which has values I deeply appreciate, and where I have already learned a lot and have much to learn. I hope to continue enhancing my knowledge and growing alongside the company.

I am pleased to join Krosaki Family, where I will be contributing to the administration and HR support team. With a background in psychology, I am passionate about helping create a positive and supportive workplace environment.
Working in the steel industry provides unique opportunities to engage with a diverse workforce and address the specific challenges of this dynamic sector. At Krosaki, I am excited to leverage these opportunities in a multicultural atmosphere where personal and professional growth is genuinely encouraged. Being part of a company that values its employees' ideas and fosters an environment where everyone can thrive makes my role even more rewarding.
