Metalúrgica Campo Limpo

Inaugurated in June, 1961, Metalúrgica Campo Limpo is considered the largest crankshafts forging plant in the world. The facility, located in the city of Campo Limpo Paulista - about 60 kilometers from São Paulo, was thyssenkrupp's first operating unit outside Europe and the Group's first plant in Brazil.

This operation boosted thyssenkrupp's performance in several segments in Brazil, such as automotive. Metalúrgica Campo Limpo is today one of the largest suppliers of engine components to the main OEMs in the world.
