The International Stainless Steel Forum Stainless production to grow further -but at a slower rate

摘要

The International Stainless Steel Forum (ISSF) expects that stainless crude steel production in 2007 will be higher than the record level of production in 2006, mostly driven by recovery from 2005 and some restocking. High raw material prices, especially for nickel, encourage the ISSF to promote ferritic grades as an economic and effective solution for the main applications of stainless steel: a book "The Ferritic Solution" is now available.
