YC Inox Co., Ltd., a stainless steel producer in Taiwan, said its Turkish industrial stainless steel pipe factory has been officially opened. The first batch of products has been successfully produced. It was planned to be put into trial production in the first quarter of 2025 and start mass production in the second quarter.

The annual production capacity of the first phase will reach 20,000 tons, and the full load can exceed 30,000 tons. Together with the cutting plant and structural pipe plant that have been put into operation in 2022, it was estimated that the total three plants will add more than 50% of the group's production capacity income in the future, helping YC Inox challenge to become the world's second-largest stainless steel pipe factory.

Since its investment in Turkey in 2019, YC Inox has overcome multiple international challenges and completed the global stainless steel industry layout. The Turkish factory will greatly enhance YC Inox’s international competitiveness by leveraging its geographical advantage as a hub spanning Europe, Asia, and Africa.
