The total annual production capacity was designed at
3.4 million tons but, due to the economic crisis across
the Asian region in 1997, the production line, then was
not completely installed, accomplishing the designed capacity
of 1.8 million tons per year. The production efficiency
for mixed product outputs to meet varied market requirements
consequently ran at 1.5 million tons per year. In 2004,
the company’s hot rolled coil outputs accounted for 1.1
million tons, 75% of the production efficiency.
At present, G Steel has the first phase de-bottlenecking
investment plan to increase the annual production capacity
from 1.8 million tons to 3.4 million tons. It will also
introduce production lines for high quality products,
i.e., a pickling and oiling line, to thoroughly respond
to customers’ demands. With promotional privileges from
the Board of Investment (BOI), the construction and production
line installation are scheduled to complete in 2007. |
