İsdemir in brief

Established in 1970 to produce long steel products, İskenderun Demir ve Çelik A.Ş. was incorporated into Erdemir Group on February 1, 2002. Production of flat steel began in 2008 at its İskenderun plant with the implementation of modernization and transformation investments so as to balance long and flat steel production levels in Turkey.

Producing flat steel products is crucial for the development of the Turkish steel industry, and İsdemir plays a significant role in enhancing the capacity of flat steel production while carrying on its activities to manufacture long products such as billet and wire rod.

In addition, it has reached 6 t (6.6 short tons) of finished-product capacity, with 3.5 t (3.9 short tons) of flat and 2.5 t (2.8 short tons) of long steel products.
