“The new investments at our Baytown, Texas, facility reinforce JSW USA’s commitment to a sustainable and green future. The new upgrades at our plate mill support the long-term ESG initiatives of JSW USA and support decarbonization of the energy spectrum in the United States of America,” said JSW Steel USA director Parth Jindal.  

“The new investments will enable us to progressively deliver high-quality steel products while further defining our niche markets through a Made in America specialty steel portfolio. These investments have the potential to significantly reduce U.S. import reliance in the infrastructure and renewable energy sectors.”

The company said it will source slabs from its Mingo Junction, Ohio, facility, where it is making a US$145 million investment in upgrades to its steelmaking capabilities. The Baytown improvements are to be completed and in service in fiscal 2026.
