Nucor Steel Berkeley selects Primetals Technologies for new galvanizing line

Nucor Steel Berkeley, a sheet mill division of U.S.-based steel producer Nucor Corp., has placed an order with Primetals Technologies for a new, automotive-grade continuous galvanizing line (CGL). The CGL will be implemented at Nucor’s facility located in Huger, S.C.

With an annual capacity of about 500,000 tons, the new line will increase the company’s galvanized production capacity and enable this location to produce advanced high-strength steel and other automotive products. The new equipment supports the company’s strategy to shift its product mix to higher-margin, value-added items. Galvanized Steel Coil Sheet
