The Whyalla Steelworks
The Whyalla Steelworks is configured as an integrated steelmaking route that produces slabs, billets, hot rolled structural steel and rail products. Total production capacity at Whyalla Steelworks is 1.2 Mtpa of cast steel and 475 ktpa of hot rolled product.
It is the only Australian manufacturer of special grade billet and steel long products.

The almost exclusively residential workforce are passionate about their community and committed to the long-term viability of the Steelworks.
