In recent years, Indonesia has solidified its position as a global supply and export hub for the stainless steel industry. With the continuous upgrade of local production capabilities, the export volume of 304L series stainless steel has seen significant growth. Due to its superior intergranular corrosion resistance and weldability, 304L is increasingly demanded in the chemical, energy, and high-end manufacturing sectors across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
