Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI)

1

High iron content

All HBI is produced with total iron content of over 90%

2

Consistent chemical composition

The chemical composition of the produced HBI is consistent, with low levels of harmful impurities, such as phosphorus and sulphur. It is free from other harmful elements, such as copper, nickel, and any non-metallic compounds.

3

Highly efficient in steelmaking

The use of HBI is notably efficient in the production of high-quality steel, as it reduces the levels of non-ferrous metals and harmful impurities.

4

Environmentally-friendly

HBI is an environmentally clean product, manufactured using DRI technology, which is currently the most environmentally-friendly technology used in iron production.

5

Easy to transport over long distances

HBI has high bulk density, so that storage, loading and unloading, and transportation by all forms of transport are significantly simpler and more cost-effective.

6

Non-toxic and non-explosive

HBI is a non-toxic and non-explosive product.
