Manufacturing

Tata Steel produces carbon steel by the basic oxygen steelmaking method at three integrated steelworks at Port Talbot and Scunthorpe in the UK and at IJmuiden in The Netherlands.

Engineering steels are produced at Rotherham, UK, using the electric arc furnace method.  A number of Tata Steel's rolling mills and process lines are on the same sites as the steelworks, but most of Tata Steel's operating sites do not have steelmaking facilities. These include:

• the strip mills at Llanwern, South Wales
• the tinplate works at Trostre, South Wales
• the coating works at Tafarnaubach, South Wales, Shotton, North Wales and Maubeuge, North France
• the electrical steel works at Newport, South Wales and Surahammer, Sweden
• the tube mills at Corby and Hartlepool, England and Oosterhout and Maastricht, Netherlands
• the plate mill at Dalzell, Scotland
• the rail mill at Hayange, North-East France
• the narrow strip mills at Brinsworth, England, Düsseldorf & Trier, Germany and Warren & Bethlehem, USA
• the special section mill at Skinningrove, England
