The company is a super large iron and steel complex integrating iron making, steel making and steel rolling. It has a blast furnace with the largest volume of 4747 cubic meters in the northeast of China, the largest 2300 hot continuous rolling mill in the world, and the most advanced cold rolling production line all over the world. Its overall technical equipment of iron and steel has reached the world's advanced level. Thus, it has an annual production capacity of 10.34 million tons of iron, 12.8 million tons of crude steel, 15.95 million tons of hot rolled steel, 6.17 million tons of cold rolled steel and 1.4 million tons of special steel. It also enjoys the production capacity and vehicle supply capacity of cold-rolled sheet with the widest and highest strength and galvanized sheet for automobiles with the highest strength. The company's products have been widely used in automobile, household appliances, petroleum, chemical industry, aerospace, machinery manufacturing, energy transportation, building decoration, metal products and other fields, and have been exporting to more than 80 countries and regions, such as the United States, the European Union, Japan, South Korea, and its total export volume has been in the forefront of the national steel industry for many consecutive years.

Recognized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China as a "National Technological Innovation Demonstration Enterprise", "Top 100 Enterprises in Brand Competitiveness of Chinese Industrial Enterprises" and "the Belt and Road Initiative• International Cooperation Model Enterprise"，the company has formed a national technology center and testing center, a national academician expert workstation, a postdoctoral research workstation, a national and local joint engineering laboratory for advanced automotive steel development and application technology and other research and development platforms, and also has established professional research institutions，such as automobile plates, high strength steel, silicon steel, which ranks the leading role domestically in the research and development of automobile plates, home appliance plates, oil pipeline steel, container steel and other products. Furthermore, it firstly produced PHS2000 cold-rolled highest strength hot formed steel and CF-PHS1500 hot-rolled oxidation resistant coating free hot formed steel in the world; also, it has achieved the trial production and supply of 0.7mm * 2050 mm high and deep drawing grade O5 plates for Jiangling Automobile, and has become the first automobile plates supplier in the world to simultaneously meet the requirements of thin, wide, deep drawing and high surface quality; hence, the company has successfully produced TRIP780 electro-galvanized trial products and passed the certification of DPCA, making it become the first domestic manufacturer capable of supplying TRIP800 electro-galvanized products.

Thus, the company has been strictly following the world's highest quality and safety standards, and has passed ISO9001 (Quality Management System), ISO14001 (Environmental Management System), ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety Management System), ISO50001 (Energy Management System) and IATF 16949 (Automobile Quality Management System) certification.
