Stainless Public Company Limited (ThaiNox), Thailand’s
only manufacturer and distributor of premium cold-rolled
stainless steel sheets and coils, was founded
on 30 July 1990 as a BOI-promoted joint venture
of the world’s leading steel industry groups from
France (Arcelor), Japan (Nippon Steel), and Thailand
(Mr. Prayudh Mahagitsiri).
Located on 130 rai (51 acres)
of land in Rayong Industrial Park, 170 kilometers
southeast of Bangkok, ThaiNox’s manufacturing
facility is the first and the most advanced of
its kind in the entire ASEAN region.
Since its establishment, ThaiNox
has increased its domestic and global market share
considerably – at an annual compounded growth
rate of 20%. The company supplies 60% of its premium-quality
stainless steel products for applications in various
industries within the country, and exports 40%
of its output to more than 30 countries across
the globe through the strong network of Arcelor
Stainless International (ASI) and South Korea’s
POSCO – leaders in the global steel and stainless
steel industry.
Currently, ThaiNox possesses
an annual production capacity of 200,000 tons
which is expanding to 300,000 tons in an attempt
to better serve the company’s existing customer
base as well as support its growth and rising
demands for stainless steel consumption.
