  • The basic oxygen steelmaking operation is comprised of three vessels tapping 150 tonne heats of low-carbon, HSLA and alloy steels.
  • Each year over 500 thousand tonnes of scrap steel is recycled into new steel in the steelmaking shop.
  • Steelmaking is supported by two ladle metallurgy stations, equipped with ladle reheat furnaces.
  • Two continuous casters have a total annual output of about 2 million tonnes of slabs and blooms:

    • Slabs produced are 240 mm thick and 1016-2032 mm wide.
    • Blooms are thicker and narrower than slabs (330 mm thick/600 mm wide) and are ultimately used to produce bar.
