Industries we support

The steel we supply today will support and strengthen our communities for decades to come. BlueScope has broad exposure to end-use segments across geographies, largely focused on the building and construction industry, as well as automotive and manufacturing end-use segments.

Steel is in our buildings and infrastructure, the cars we drive, other transportation we use, and the mechanical and electrical equipment we use every day and we all rely on. If steel is not ‘in’ something, it’s probably in the machine that was used to make it.
