Written by Tim Triplett
Steel Dynamics has narrowed the choice for its new flat rolled steel mill to either Texas or Louisiana.
The planned $1.8 billion EAF mill will have an annual production capacity of 3 million tons and include a 450,000-ton galvanizing line and 250,000-ton paint line with Galvalume capability. The mill will differentiate itself by producing higher strength and tougher materials for the energy and auto sectors, the company said, with capability for 84-inch wide, 1-inch thick, 100 ksi hot rolled coil.
