Shanxi Taigang Stainless Steel Co., Ltd.

China's largest stainless steel maker, Taiyuan-based

What Shanxi Taigang Stainless Steel does

Shanxi Taigang Stainless Steel makes stainless steel and other specialty steel products at its mills in Taiyuan, China, and sells them at home and abroad. Beyond ordinary stainless plate and pipe, it produces harder-to-make grades such as ultra-thin "hand-torn" foil, pen-tip steel, silicon steel for electrical equipment, and wheel and axle steel for trains. Its metal ends up in oil and chemical plants, ships, shipping containers, railways, cars, light rail and power stations.

How Shanxi Taigang Stainless Steel makes money

It earns revenue by smelting and rolling raw materials into stainless and carbon steel products — plates, coils, pipes, billets and pig iron — and selling them to industrial customers in China and export markets. Additional income comes from trading stainless steel and ferrous metals and from technical consulting and bonded warehousing services.
