Corporate Overview

About Our Businesses

Established as Korea’s first steelmaker in 1953, Hyundai Steel has paved the way for sustainable growth by boosting blast furnace business as a new growth engine in addition to its existing electric arc furnace based operation. We will continue to prepare for a greater future with a vision of 'Leading the New Era of Steel'.

Blast Furnace Business

Blast Furnace Business

As a steel mill specialized in automotive materials, Hyundai Steel is heavily engaged in the development of next generation steel for future automotive industry. Since the groundbreaking ceremony at the Dangjin integrated steel mill in October 2006, the first and second blast furnaces are commissioned in January and November 2010 in order. Then, the completion of blast furnace No. 3 in September 2013 enabled us to become a comprehensive global steelmaker with a total crude steel production capacity of 24 million tons including 12 million tons from blast furnaces and 12 million tons from electric arc furnaces. Furthermore, merging with cold rolling division of Hyundai Hysco in December 2013, we have now established the one-stop production system integrating all production processes from raw materials to finished products.
