SeAH Steel Holdings (formerly SeAH Steel Corporation) is a South Korean holding company located in Seoul, South Korea. It was founded as a steel manufacturer in 1960 by Lee Jong-Deok with the name of Pusan Steel Pipe Industry Corporation.

In 2018, the SeAH Steel Corporation split into two separate entities, SeAH Steel Holdings, a holding group for SeAh's foreign affiliate companies, and SeAH Steel, which kept the steel manufacturing activities.[1]

The company operates seven steel mills worldwide with locations in the United States,[2] Vietnam,[3] United Arab Emirates,[4] and Italy.[5] And now construction works have got underway for SeAH Wind's offshore wind foundation factory in Teesside, UK.[6]

SeAH Steel

[edit]

SeAH Steel remains the main subsidiary of SeAH Steel Holdings after it transitioned into two separate entities in 2018.[1]

SeAH Steel is the largest Korean steel pipe manufacturer[7][1] and its main products consist of steel pipes, titanium tubes, stainless steel pipes and galvanized color steel sheets.[8] It currently runs four plants in South Korea, located in Pohang, Gunsan, Suncheon and Changwon.

Management

[edit]

As of 2022, SeAH Steel Holdings corporate leadership is headed by President and CEO Lee Joo-sung.[9] He plays a primary role in managing the company's business operations and diversifying the company activities. Lee Joo-sung led SeAH Steel Holdings into the renewable energy market by creating the UK-based subsidiary SeAH Wind and its construction works have got underway for SeAH Wind's new £400m offshore wind foundation factory in Teesside, UK.
