Japanese steelmaker Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation (NSSMC) has announced that NS BlueScope Thailand, part of NS BlueScope Coated Products, a joint venture between NSSMC and Australia-based BlueScope Steel Limited, has decided to commence production of a high value-added galvanized steel sheet called SuperDyma in Thailand.
 
NS BlueScope Thailand will revamp its metal coating line No. 2 for production of the new type of galvanized steel sheet, with the revamped line to be commissioned in August 2015.

SuperDyma, a product of NSSMC, is a hot-dipped alloy coated steel sheet mainly with zinc, as well as aluminum, magnesium, and silicon. Compared with current galvanized steel sheets, SuperDyma has excellent corrosion resistance, which might bring cost competitiveness to customers through longer life cycle of products and substituting other materials.
