OREANDA-NEWS. June 20, 2013. ArcelorMittal has just launched two new websites. Germany and Luxembourg are now online at http://germany.arcelormittal.com and http://luxembourg.arcelormittal.com. 

The websites include an overview of the main facilities in both countries as well as information about ArcelorMittal's engagement as a responsible corporate citizen. They also include exciting stories about the latest product innovations, local news and press releases as well as information for those interested in exploring job opportunities with the company. 

Not only does ArcelorMittal have its headquarters and main administration offices in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, it also runs various steelmaking operations in the country, represented by16 different sites and units throughout Luxembourg. Steel production facilities include long, flat and wire products. ArcelorMittal also owns a research and development (R&D) centre in Esch-sur-Alzette, designed for research in long products. ArcelorMittal Luxembourg is a top producer of long products such as heavy beams and steel sheet piles that provide innovative solutions at its largest sites in Belval and Differdange. In 2012 ArcelorMittal announced an investment plan of EUR150m until 2016 to secure the future of steelmaking in Luxembourg.
 
A production volume of 7 million tonnes of crude steel puts ArcelorMittal among the three largest steel producers in Germany. Its customers come from the automotive; construction and packaging industry. ArcelorMittal runs four production facilities in the country. These include two fully integrated flat carbon sites in Bremen and Eisenhuttenstadt as well as two long carbon plants in Hamburg and Duisburg, specialising in wire products. ArcelorMittal has recently invested more than €130m in a new wire rod mill in Duisburg. The group also runs a broad range of steel service and distribution centers in Germany.
 
The websites for both countries offer a fascinating insight to what the group is contributing to the steel industry in Germany and Luxembourg today. "The focus on our higher value added products, our continuous R&D efforts for automotive and construction steels - combined with excellent customer services - will enable us to keep and extend our leading position in these countries", comments Michel Wurth, member of the Group Management Board at ArcelorMittal.
