Business Summary
Kentucky Electric Steel, Inc. owns and operates a steel mini-mill near Ashland, Kentucky. As a mini-mill producer of bar flats, the Company recycles steel from scrap, a process designed to result in lower production costs than those of integrated steel mills, which produce steel by processing iron ore and other raw materials in blast furnaces. Bar flats are produced to a variety of specifications and fall primarily into two general quality levels, merchant bar quality steel bar flats for generic types of applications and special bar quality steel bar flats, where more precise customer specifications require the use of various alloys, customized equipment and special production procedures to insure that the finished product meets critical end use performance characteristics.
