The projects aim to increase production capacity under the EMSTEEL Asset Development Program and to integrate advanced solutions that will meet rising market demands. These investments will enable EMSTEEL to enter higher-quality markets in product groups such as international tire cord, seismic rebar, prestressed concrete (PC) strand, alloy cold heading, and welding wire.
New Wire Rod Line Enabling Thermomechanical Rolling
The new wire rod line will be part of RM No. 05 and will expand EMSTEEL’s product portfolio with plain wire rod in coils ranging from 5.5–24 mm and rebar in coils ranging from 8–16 mm. Primetals Technologies redesigned the existing mill to optimize tolerance, reduce wear during pass changes, and lower mill stand loading.
High-Quality Products with Advanced Cooling
As part of the modernization at RM No. 03, a new Morgan Stelmor Controlled Cooling Conveyor will be installed. This system will increase overall cooling capacity, improve the quality of rolled wire rods, and allow EMSTEEL to meet high-quality PC strand standards. The new blower-equipped roller modules will be integrated into the existing coil handling system, while the patented Optimesh air distribution will enhance tension uniformity in small-diameter products. The upgrade also includes new drives, a motor, and a fully integrated automation system.
EMSTEEL, a publicly listed company on ADX, is the UAE’s largest producer of steel and construction materials. Leveraging the latest technologies, the group supplies high-quality finished products to local markets and to more than 70 international markets, offering a one-stop solution for the manufacturing and construction industries.
