Acciaieria Arvedi S.p.A.

Acciaieria Arvedi produces carbon steel HRC (Hot Rolled Coils), CRC (Cold Rolled Coils), PC (Pickled Coils), HDGC (Hot Dip Galvanized Coils) , PPC ( Pre Painted Coils), strips and slit products. The Production focuses on high performance steels (including high resistant and Dual Phase grades) in thin and ultrathin gauges, also for automotive applications. The Cremona works, built at the beginning of the ’90 as the first example of a mini-mill for flat rolled steel in Europe, features two HRC production lines, each fed by its own Electric Arc furnace-based melt shop and independent secondary metallurgy stations. The first line is based on the Arvedi ISP - In-line Strip Production (Arvedi patent) technology, the first thin slab plant in the world with casting and rolling coupled in a single integrated process. The second, in full production since 2009, is the world’s first Arvedi ESP line: the revolutionary patented technology allowing the production of HRC in full endless mode and rolling of ultra-thin gauges down to 1 mm already as hot rolled band. The hot-rolled coils can be sold as black coil or further processed in the in-house facilities (pickling lines, cold rolling mill, galvanizing lines, pre paining lines, slitting lines).
