The Iron and Steel Business produces materials that support the infrastructure of industrialized society.
We are constantly striving to develop new products that meet changing needs.
Our titanium products in particular are finding exciting new markets. We have also developed environment-friendly
chromium-free steel sheet and lubricated steel sheet. Other new products are specialty steels and high tensile steel sheet, which
help to reduce car weight. And we're also entering the independent power producer business.
Our global business is growing and a good example is PRO-TEC Coating Company, our U.S. joint venture with USX that
produces hot dip galvanized steel sheet.
