Steel Production Giant in Brazil Is Optimistic About the National Scenario and Will Invest Millions to Reactivate Its Steel Production Unit in Paraná City

Gerdau stands out in the national market as the largest steel producer. The company has decided to reactivate steel production in Araucária-PR, a unit that had been operating with reduced activities since 2015. The company promises to invest R$ 55 million and generate many direct and indirect job openings.

The company announced on Thursday that due to the current scenario in Brazil, it has decided to reactivate its steel production in the Araucária unit. As previously mentioned, the steel production had been halted due to the crisis that began in 2014, which caused the demand for steel to drop nationwide. Consequently, the giant opted to maintain only one unit for doubling steel.

Gerdau’s investments in the Araucária unit will be substantial, with a steel plant expected to resume operations by the second half of the year. The trend is that about 300 new job openings will be created. The unit has the capacity to produce approximately 420,000 tons of steel annually. However, the restart will be gradual, producing around 35,000 tons.
