Case Study: Kloeckner Metals achieves streamlined EHS management and sustainability progress with Intelex

A commitment to better safety today and a sustainable tomorrow

Kloeckner Metals, a subsidiary of Klöckner & Co., is a leading metal distributor and digital pioneer committed to sustainability. The company faced fragmented EHS systems that created silos, duplicated reporting and limited senior-management visibility, so it needed a single, auditable platform to streamline incident tracking, corrective actions, audits, meetings and job hazard analyses.

Kloeckner implemented Intelex in two phases—deploying sustainability and EHS apps (KPIs, communication, audit and meeting management, action plans, JSA) followed by EHS Incident Management—consolidating workflows, automating insurance claim notifications and replacing paper CapEx approvals. The solution boosted engagement (61% increase in employee involvement in safety activities; 26% more employees felt empowered; 57% higher safety satisfaction), enabled weekly Close Call and monthly KPI reports, and drove measurable safety improvements versus 2018: 55% fewer OSHA recordables, 43% fewer restricted-duty cases and 62% fewer lost-time injuries.
