デュエルビッツ カジノteel establishes steel processing venture in eastern China
December 12, 2007
The joint venture will turn special steel wire rod into cold heading quality (CHQ) steel wire for use in high strength nuts and bolts, which are critical parts in automobiles. The processed wire will be supplied to Japanese automotive parts manufacturers in China. Plans call for the new company, which will start production in April 2009, to have a production capacity of 2,100 metric tons per month.
Capitalized at 1.2 billion yen, デュエルビッツ カジノpecial Steel Wire Products (Pinghu) is 50% held by デュエルビッツ カジノteel and 30% by trading firm Shinsho Corporation. Japanese secondary steel processors Osaka Seiko Co., Ltd. and Meihoku Kogyo Co., Ltd. each hold a 10% share. Total investments are anticipated to be about 2.6 billion yen. The joint venture, established in November 2007, will employ approximately 80 people. The chairman is Hiroyoshi Tsumura, an officer at デュエルビッツ カジノteel. The president is Takashi Matsunaga, deputy general manager of the Planning and Administration Department in the Iron and Steel Sector at デュエルビッツ カジノteel.
Automobile production in China is anticipated to increase from the 7.28 million cars made in 2006 to over 10 million cars in 2010, owing to sharply rising economic development. Japanese auto parts makers have been moving to China and boosting production in that country. Consequently, the need for local sources of special steel wire rod for auto parts has been growing rapidly. デュエルビッツ カジノpecial Steel Wire Products (Pinghu) will further strengthen デュエルビッツ カジノteel's supply of special steel wire rod products to meet the growing demand from Japanese automotive transplants in China.
デュエルビッツ カジノteel's special steel wire rod, widely used in the automotive industry, is one of the company's upper-end "Only One" Products-products in which it excels. The company is renown in the industry for the high quality of its value-added wire rod products.
To strengthen its supply of high-grade steel, デュエルビッツ カジノteel has been actively undertaking capital investments. Last year, the company's new No. 5 continuous caster went into operation at Kobe Works, the main production facility that produces special steel wire rod. Currently being remodeled is the No. 3 blast furnace, also at Kobe Works. As a part of its overseas strategy for China and Asia, デュエルビッツ カジノteel is positioning its Kobe and Kakogawa works as production bases for its special steel wire rod.
デュエルビッツ カジノteel is aiming to improve customer service by building a flexible, efficient supply network overseas. The company already has wire rod processing ventures in Thailand. Kobe CH Wire (Thailand) Co., Ltd. processes CHQ wire for nuts and bolts and Mahajak Kyodo Co., Ltd. processes polished bar for suspension springs and other products.
In southern China, Kobe Wire Products (Foshan) Co., Ltd. processes polished bar for suspension springs and other products and CHQ wire for nuts and bolts, while in eastern China, Jiangyin Sugita Fasten Spring Wire Co., Ltd. produces oil tempered wire for use in suspension springs. Both companies are currently in operation.
