Overseas Deployment of Wire Rod Bar Manufacturing and Wire Rod Secondary Processing

摘要

The demand for special steel wire rods and bars has been increasing as Japanese auto makers continually expand their overseas operations, increasing the local procurement of automotive parts. Kobe Steel now has a technical tie-up with two special steel mills in Europe and North America so that high quality wire rod and bar can be supplied to auto makers and parts makers. Kobe Steel has also constructed a system to provide for the secondary processing of wire rod products for Japanese parts makers, mainly by establishing secondary processing companies in Asia and North America.
