JSW is India´s third largest steel producer. The company is making the investment in order to be able to offer surface-treated steel wire as a semi-finished product for the first time. In order to take this step, the steel manufacturer looked for a partner with extensive experience in engineering, manufacturing, assembly, commissioning and technical support to act as a full-service supplier able to seamlessly integrate the plant into the existing production lines and offer a plant flexible enough to reliably accommodate the wide range of grades and processes required.

The order also included an automatic transport system for handling the wire coils, a tank farm for storing the pickling and treatment solutions as well as a complete exhaust air treatment plant.
