Following suspensions of blast furnaces on Aug 12, some 17,000 mt of total daily production of rebar and wire rod will be affected

SHANGHAI, Aug 10 (SMM) – Jiangxi Pinggang Industrials Holdings in Jiangxi province will suspend a blast furnace of 450m³ and another of 1080m³ on Sunday August 12. Following this, all seven operating blast furnaces owned by the company will cease to be in production.
