Oceania   thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions has opened a new service centre in Brisbane, Australia, on 14 May, 2019. The new facility is ideally located to support thyssenkrupp’s customer base on the East Coast of Australia as well as clients in Oceania that utilise major logistics channels through Brisbane.
