Chinese steelmaker Handan Steel, a subsidiary of Hebei Steel Group, is planning to carry out maintenance work on its 3,500 mm medium plate production line from March 8 and will resume production operations at the line in late June, industry sources said.
The overhaul is expected to cut the steelmaker's medium plate output by around 300,000 mt.
