Our main products are hot and cold rolled stainless steel sheets, plates and strips that are used in numerous
applications – such as the construction industry, the automotive industry and equipment for the process industry. Wide
and thick individually rolled quarto plates are used in the energy sector, chemical transportation, desalination, and in the
process industry in pressure cylinders, tanks, thick-walled tubes, bridge structures and process equipment. Our tubes are
mainly used by the process industry, such as the oil refining and the pulp and paper industries; bars are so-called long
products, from which i.e. wire and reinforcement bars are manufactured.
