Japan-based JFE Steel Corporation has announced that it will build the first continuous galvanizing line (CGL) for automobiles in Indonesia.
According to JFE Steel, the new hot dip galvanized steel sheet line with an annual capacity of 400,000 mt will be constructed and operated by its wholly owned subsidiary Pt. JFE Steel Galvanizing Indonesia. The company will also be responsible for the sale of the hot dip galvanized steel.
JFE Steel plans to produce hot dip galvanized steel sheet ranging between 0.4-2.3 mm in thickness and 800-1,850 mm in width on the new line which is scheduled to start operations in March 2016. The new production line will be constructed with a total investment of $300 million.
The new continuous galvanizing line will be JFE Steel's third line for automobiles in Asia, following China and Thailand, where the company already operates continuous galvanizing lines. JFE Steel also provides manufacturing technology for a continuous galvanizing line and related facilities operated by its partner JSW Steel in India.
