Nucor’s Topalian: It’s About Capability, Not Capacity
Written by Tim Triplett
Nucor is investing to grow in capability not capacity, said Nucor President and CEO Leon Topalian in remarks Tuesday during the virtual Tampa Steel Conference, co-hosted by Steel Market Update. “It’s not about tons and volume, but about servicing customers’ long-term needs,” he said.
One growing customer segment for Nucor is the auto industry. Nucor claims to be the first electric arc furnace (EAF) minimill with the capability to produce Gen 3 advanced high-strength steels for demanding automotive applications.
