In October 2023, this amount was increased to 8 million tons of HRC.

Recently, the factory has made a number of production line improvements. Specifically, we invested and put into operation roll forming machine No. 3 from in November 2022, increasing roll forming capacity, ensuring redundancy for continuous production.

In January 2023, the factory completed installation and trial run of the F5 rolling rack, allowing HRC thinning from 1.5 to 1.2mm. Installing a rolling rack has improved product geometry, increased productivity and efficiency when rolling products.
