Manufacturing Process

All our steel is produced via the Electric Arc (EAF) steelmaking route using 100% high quality scrap. The molten steel is ladle refined and vacuum degassed before being cast in Wide End Up (WEU) bottom poured ingot moulds or on a large continuous caster. Our versatile primary mill and billet finishing facilities ensure excellent shape and size control for all product sections.
