Finland-based steelmaker Ruukki has announced that it has opened new sales offices in Toronto, Canada and Santiago, Chile to serve its special steel customers in the Americas. Opening these new sales offices is in line with Ruukki's strategy to increase the share of special steel products in its total sales and to develop its distribution and partnership network.
