As part of its expansion strategy in Central & Eastern Europe, Arcelor Mittal invests in a new Steel Service Centre (SSC) in Krakow. With a processing capacity of 450 000 tons per year, this facility will strengthen the existing network of SSC operations in Poland, in Huta Sendzimira (Krakow) and in Bytom (near Katowice). It will start operating early in 4th quarter 2007.

This development anticipates the expected transformation of the Polish steel market over the coming years, in size as much as in quality and service standards. The new facility will be fitted with modern equipment, serviced by a lean and specialised team, and will be able to meet the evolving market requirements with the utmost efficiency.
