BACKGROUND

 

The subject was incorporated in South Australia on 3 June 1946 as Tubemakers of Australia Ltd, adopting the current style on 9 November 2001.

 

The Holding Entity Onesteel Ltd was created through a decision by BHP to split its flat and long product steel divisions.

 

Onesteel Ltd was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange on 23 October 2000 and was formed to combine eight historically-diverse yet related businesses to form a vertically-integrated mining, steel manufacturing, and steel and metal products distribution company.

 

In June 2007, OneSteel and Smorgon Steel, became a single entity. With more than 10,000 employees in over 200 locations across Australia and 13 offshore facilities.

                       

 

OPERATIONS

 

The subject operates in the distribution of coated and uncoated steel sheet and coil products.

 

The Group manufactures steel long products including structural steel, pipe and tube, rails, reinforcing steel, rod, bar and wire. The majority of OneSteel’s products are used in the construction, manufacturing, housing, mining and agricultural industries.

 

The Group is a market-leading business focussed around four core elements:

 

·         OneSteel Distribution, which takes products to a broad customer base;

 

·         OneSteel Market Mills, which manufactures and wholesales the Groups products;

 

·         OneSteel Whyalla Steelworks, a low-cost steelmaking and rolling business; and

 

·         Steel and Tube Holdings, which operates throughout New Zealand and British Columbia, and in which OneSteel has a 50.01% interest.
