デュエルビッツ 入金方法el plans capital investments of 92 billion yen in fiscal 2008
April 25, 2008
デュエルビッツ 入金方法el will carry out projects to improve its line-up of ."Only One" upper-end products and upgrade its manufacturing capabilities to increase the competitiveness of the company.
Most of the investments are in the Iron & Steel segment. At the Kakogawa Works, the company plans to increase sintering capacity. デュエルビッツ 入金方法el will also increase the production capacity at the Takasago Works' Steel Casting and Forging Plant, which makes crankshafts for large ships. An environment-related investment is the installation of denitration equipment at the sintering plant in the Kakogawa Works.
Capital investments in fiscal 2008 will be less than the 114.6 billion yen spent in fiscal 2007. Much of the higher capital expenditure last year went to refurbishing and rebuilding two blast furnaces, one at the Kakogawa Works and the other at the Kobe Works.
