Tenova LOI Italimpianti, together with Tenova Hypertherm, signed a contract with BMM Ispat Ltd. for a 160 tonne/hour walking beam furnace.
BMM Ispat, a company located at Hospet, in the state of Karnataka, South India, is setting up an 850,000 tonne per year merchant bar mill with all upstream facilities including a blast furnace, coke oven batteries, steel melting shop, and continuous caster as part of its 2 million tonnes per year integrated steel plant, which will integrate an existing plant producing sponge iron, pellets, TMT bars and power. The rolling mills will be supplied by Siemens VAI.

With this contract, Tenova LOI Italimpianti and Tenova Hypertherm have further strengthened their presence in the Indian market.
