Algoma Steel Group, a Canadian producer of hot and cold rolled steel sheet and plate, has awarded the structural building contract for its electric arc steelmaking facility to Hamilton, Ont.-based Walters Group.
Walters will be responsible for fabricating and erecting the main building structure in addition to the necessary dust collection hoods.
The company will use Algoma’s steel plate products in the fabrication of the heavy structural components, and will work with local industrial contractor, SIS Manufacturing Inc., for the fabrication of these key elements.
Building is expected to begin in the fall of 2022, with completion targeted within a year.
“Today’s announcement marks another significant milestone in our path to become Canada’s top producer of green steel,” said Michael McQuade, CEO, Algoma. “Walters has a strong reputation for safe project execution and extensive experience in major industrial projects.”
