Hot Dip Galvanizingline 2
ArcelorMittal Krakow the biggest steel producer in Poland employed about 10,500 People in January 2008. Due to the made investments made in 2004-2007 ArcelorMittal is one of the most modern steel plants of Europe.
Inside the plant area of ArcelorMittal Krakow a huge space was freed by the deconstruction of an old steel plant. At that place, a new Cold Rolling Mill is planned to be erected for continued processing of products coming from the existing Hot Strip Mill (HSM).
As first step of the erection of the new Cold Rolling Mill another new Hot Dip Galvanizing Line (HDGL) was foreseen. Further extension with additional Hot Dip Galvanizing Lines and Hot Rolling Mills was considered by ArcelorMittal Krakow.
