The multi-phase project will considerably strengthen Türkiye’s domestic production of stainless steel.
ANDRITZ will supply cold rolling mills, an annealing and pickling line, skin-pass mills, and related auxiliary equipment for the first phase of Saritas’s project. The equipment will enable the production of high-quality cold-rolled stainless steel products for applications in industries such as home appliances, automotive, and energy. Start-up is scheduled for early 2028.
Once fully completed, the new stainless steel plant will have an annual capacity of 800,000 metric tons. It will help significantly reduce Türkiye’s dependence on imported stainless steel products. Advanced technologies will ensure production in line with international quality standards, strengthening the company’s competitiveness in regional and international markets.
The project forms part of Saritas’s long-term growth strategy, which emphasizes resource efficiency and the use of digital process control. ANDRITZ’s technologies, supported by comprehensive automation and digitalization solutions, are designed to ensure stable production processes, high surface quality, and efficient use of energy.
The value of the order will not be disclosed. It is included in ANDRITZ’s order intake for the second quarter of 2026.
