The new line will increase production of high-quality strip steel, Danieli announced on March 20. With the commissioning of the new line at G Steel's plant, which has an annual hot-rolling capacity of 1.58 million tons, up to 720,000 tons of hot-rolled strip steel will be cold-rolled into coils, increasing its added value.
The investment is part of G Steel's three-year investment plan worth 30 billion Thai baht (approximately USD 88.73 million), announced in August 2024. In the process, the company aims not only to invest in cold rolling equipment but also to optimize scrap yard operations and improve production stability and reliability at its existing facilities.
It was emphasized that G Steel's decision to expand its product range was driven by factors such as weakening demand for hot-rolled steel, increasing imported steel volumes, and shrinking profit margins. Scheduled to start production in April 2026, the new line will make a significant contribution to the Thai steel industry.
