[SMM Steel] Feralpi Stahl, part of Italy’s Feralpi Group, is increasing annual steel capacity at its Riesa plant in Germany from 1 million mt to 1.3 million mt through a new Danieli rolling mill commissioned last May. The new facility currently operates on a two-shift basis and is expected to receive final equipment certification this summer. The mill targets annual rebar-in-coil output of 400,000-450,000 mt, with plans to shift to three-shift operations by 2027 depending on market conditions. The company also said it will continue investing in scrap processing operations.
