Focus on value-added steel processing
According to the company, the new service center, located in an industrial park with convenient access to Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Thane, will provide specialized workshop processing, enabling manufacturers to receive ready-to-assemble components tailored to their needs. The offering is designed to support customers requiring high-strength and wear-resistant steel solutions, particularly in demanding industrial applications.
The new center includes a warehouse with storage capacity for more than 10,000 mt of steel plate.
The Mumbai facility will primarily serve Indian manufacturers in transport equipment, construction machinery, and lifting equipment sectors. By delivering pre-fabricated steel components, SSAB aims to help customers improve efficiency and reduce production time.
