In view of appreciable signs of economic recovery, the iron and steel multinational, Acerlor Mittal, has decided to invest 3.5 million euros in a project for the Acería Compacta de Bizkaia steelworks (ACB). Thus, this facility will be able to substitute the use of scrap as a raw material in favour of pre-reduced iron, which in turn, will lead to the production of higher quality steel.
Acerlor will supply ACB with this material from its pre-reduced iron factory in Trinidad and Tobago.
