ArcelorMittal considers Asturias BF restart
Luxembourg-based steelmaker ArcelorMittal is mulling restarting blast furnace A at its Asturias plant in Spain in early February.
The furnace will be running at a reduced capacity, if switched back on.
ArcelorMittal idled the unit at the end of September, in response to weak market demand and economic uncertainty.
ArcelorMittal's Asturias plant has two blast furnaces and produces heavy plate, wire rod and rails.
