Developing and distributing a
wider range of steels
MARCEGAGLIA, an Italian steel pro-
cessing corporation with an output of
5mn tonnes per year and production
plants on three continents, has
completed a major internal restructuring
and reorganisation of its steel operations,
aiming for strengthening and ‘industry-
leading growth’.
Chairman
and
CEO
Antonio
Marcegaglia commented, “With the aim
of greater transparency and clarity, we
have completed the split-off of our non-
core equity holdings (tourism, white
goods components, building) from our
core business, steel processing, which
we aim to focus on and strengthen.”
In more than 50 years in business,
Marcegaglia has created a production
mix strictly linked to the structure and
organisation of the entire group, rang-
ing from the processing of carbon and
stainless steel tubes and flat products,
to products for the building and con-
struction industry (with the production
of insulated panels and crash barriers,
for example), and in electromechanical
components, composites, energy and
DIY sectors.
The reorganisation has led to a
regrouping of Marcegaglia’s three main
businesses – Carbon Steel (tubes and
flat products), Specialties (stainless
and drawn steels) and Plates (heavy
plate manufacture) – into separate com-
panies owned by holding corporation
Marcegaglia Steel.
