THE COMPANY

Introduction

The history of METALSIDER began in 1982. In January of that year, the company began producing pig iron in Betim, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

The company’s production and marketing initially targeted the domestic market, thus, METALSIDER began its activities operating with two blast furnaces. In the following years, the company expanded its capacity with the acquisition of three other steel plants, consolidating the current industrial park.
