The order is part of ArcelorMittal’s project to convert an electro-galvanizing line to a continuous galvanizing line in the Florange plant, thus further strengthening its market position in advanced high-strength steels for the automotive industry.
This order once again confirms the extensive and successful business relationship between Andritz and ArcelorMittal. Following the deliveries to ArcelorMittal’s plants in Kessales and Ghent, this will be the third direct-fired furnace to be supplied to ArcelorMittal in three years.
Florange is one of the three ArcelorMittal plants producing Usibor and Alusi steel strip with widths of up to 1,850 mm. The new line will be able to produce Usibor steel grades.
