British Steel 'fully operational', to launch new products for UK infrastructure drive

摘要

London—Six months following its takeover by Chinese private-sector steelmaker Jingye Group, British Steel is developing new products to support the UK’s infrastructure drive, CEO Ron Deelen said Sept. 24, without giving further details of the planned product launch. It is also embracing more flexible ways of working, entering more markets and investing in its assets to modernize plant and improve performance, the CEO said. The 3 million mt/year crude steel capacity company has maintained stable production throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and is fully operational, in ironmaking, steelmaking and all rolling mill operations, a spokesman said.
