Beijing - May 18, 2006
Shougang Steel Factory


Beijing Shougang Co., Ltd., founded in October 1999, is principally engaged in the iron and steel industry. Based in Beijing, the company mainly produces steel wire rods, square steel billets, steel plates, chemical products, gas, coke, pig iron and granulating slag. In 2005, Beijing Shougang produced approximately 4.26 million metric tons of iron, 5.16 million metric tons of steel and 3.82 million metric tons of steel products.

We were not allowed to take pictures inside of the plant but seeing the molten steel being poured was awesome, not to mention hot.  This plant is scheduled to be closed and moved to a more remote area because of the pollution it produces.
