Job Cuts,European Steel Crisis,Overcapacity

ThyssenKrupp Steel announces significant job cuts and production reductions in response to overcapacity, cheap imports, and structural changes in the European steel market.

Via Metal Miner ThyssenKrupp Steel TKS recently announced plans to cut up to 11,000 positions. In a blow to the struggling EU steel market, the German steelmaker stated it would also reduce rolled production by an average 23%. 'This is the company's response to the further consolidation of fundamental and structural changes in the European steel market and in key customer and target markets,' the steelmaker said in a November 25 announcement.

Products from the site have applications in the automotive, construction and industrial machinery sectors. TKS also plans to sell its shares of the Httenwerke Krupp Mannesmann plant, also located in Duisburg. The HKM plant is a three-way joint venture between TKS, compatriot steelmaker Salzgitter and French tubes producer Vallourec, with holdings of 50%, 30% and 20%, respectively.
