Acciaieria Arvedi

Acciaieria Arvedi’s particular plant con- ception makes its special products, with a higher added value, the strong point of its sales mix as they can be produced flexibly and economically. Italian and foreign customers also rec- ognize in Arvedi steel the best quality characteristics as regards weldability, formability, strength and constancy. These positive characteristics are con- sequently reflected in significant sav- ings for all those industrial productions where steel is the raw material. Highly flexible and reliable production to compete in the quality steels segment Arvedi steel meets end-users’ primary requirements - it is directly hot rolled in the broadest range of gauges - down to 0.8 mm - and widths - 1550 mm - even for thin gauge high strength steels; - it guarantees higher strength values and consequently a saving in weight due to the use of lower gauges; - thanks to close dimensional tolerances, similar to those of cold rolled products, it increases processing yield; - it is welded and processed better because it is very clean, being obtained from a production and refining cycle that guarantees a very low inclusional level.
