IntroductionGood Strategic Fit In The Quest Of Cost-CompetitivenessCost competitiveness coupled with enhanced productivity has become MANTRAS for survival of steel companies.SGSSL came into existence in the year 2005, largely to cater the needs of sourcing from China, the global manufacturing hub. Today, there are three full fledged divisions working at SGSSL, namely:1.Refractories Division2.Minerals and Metals Division3.New Business DivisionRefractory has been a very important input material for steel making. While in constant contact with molten iron and steel in the manufacturing process, it greatly impacts the cleanliness of steel. Refractory performance also decides the equipment availability for steel making. The high quality and chemically compatible basic refractories were scarce until Chinese Magnesite (in Liaoning Province) was discovered in early nineties for making high-performance steel plant refractories. SGSSL being based there has access to the best sources, coupled with experienced sales-service team it offers a good bet in terms of total Cost of Ownership (TCO).At Minerals and Metals division, forging long-term strategic alliances and price contracts with reputed producers, we are hedged against price escalations and short supplies of the materials.
