Borcelik revamps HDG line
Turkish producer Borcelik announced that the company will start a new modernization process for its second hot dipped
galvanized line, known as Birlik Galvaniz in February 2006.
The company's aim is to increase hot dipped
galvanized production capacity to meet the rising demand for
galvanized material.
Borcelik also told SteelOrbis that the company kept away from commercial market as they focused on main and subsidiary industries of
automotive and home appliances sector.
The investment, which is scheduled to be completed in May/June, will increase the
production capacity by 50.000-60.000 tons to 120.000-130.000 tons.
The modernization project will also allow company to increase the quality and homogeneity of
coated surfaces, improve the lock-forming of
coated surfaces and produce in thickness ranging between 2.00-4.00 mm.
