COMPANY PROFILE

Peoples Steel Mills Ltd., a world class alloy and special steel manufacturing plant located in Manghopir Karachi and spread over an area of 100 acres was set-up by the Government of Pakistan in 1975 with japanese assistance.

In order to keep pace with emerging technologies, the plant was upgraded in 1996 through a comprehensive balancing & modernization programme with the technical assistance of VAIS, INTECO and Bohler of Austria. The plant is now equipped with modern melting, refining, degassing, electro slag re-melting and necessary casting, rolling and forging facilities with an annual capacity of 70,000mt. Product quality is assured through modern material testing facilities and well trained staff.

The plant has the capability to produce Steels according to all major international quality standards and to date has manufactured more than 300 steel grades.

Peoples Steel enjoys the highest market share in the alloy and special steel market of Pakistan. A diversified base of more than 200 customers includes high profile illustrious end users in automotive, defence, machinery construction, special/ high rise buildings, transportation and engineering sectors in Pakistan. Components manufactured from our steels are also supplied by our customers to renowned European automobile manufacturers.

In addition to manufacturing/ supply of quality steels Peoples Steel is also extending expertise in the following fields:

Material Testing & Analyzing-Chemical, Mechanical, NDT, Metallography, Failure Analysis.

Industrial Projects & Services-Plant Fabrication & Installation.

Seamless Pipe Manufacturing-Pipes/ Tubes upto 300mm diameter are expected to be available in near future.

QUALITY POLICY

Peoples Steel Mills Ltd. is committed to the achievement of customer requirements and expectations and to continuous improvement in productivity, quality, service, technology and costs.

PRODUCTION FACILITIES

Melting is done in two 15 tonne capacity Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) and refining is carried out in Ladle Furnaces (LF) with Vacuum Degassing (VD)/ Vacuum Oxygen Decarburization (VOD).

Melting & Refining

Highly refined ingots in rectangular, round and square sections are produced by bottom pouring technique. Ingot sizes very from 500 kg to 14,000 kg depending on steel grade and initial stock size requirement. Ingots can be slowly cooled, stress relieved or annealed.

Ingot Casting

Secondary refining is achieved through Electro-Slag-Remelting (ESR) unit, capable of producing 315 to 720 mm diameter ingots having highly uniform structure for critical applications.

Secondary Refining
