PROFILE |
 |
In South America, stainless steel is written "Companhia Acos Especiais Itabira," or Acesita, for short. The company is the region's only maker of silicon and stainless steel (268,000 and 215,000 metric tons, respectively, per year). The company also produces carbon and alloyed steel and thick bars for heavy components in trucks and tractors. Acesita has sold its interests in utility companies in order to reduce debt and to focus on its core product. The company became a leading player in Latin America steel distribution after taking control of the region's Amorim Comercial. French steelmaker Usinor owns nearly 40% of the company.
