2021-11-04 02:48:13 By : Mr. Carl Bian

Charlotte, North Carolina, October 6, 2021/PRNewswire/ - Nucor Corporation (NYSE: NUE) today announced that it is in the process of acquiring Shelbyville’s existing state-of-the-art volume Wood processing facility to expand its Nucor Fastener Division, Indiana. The facility includes an automatic cleaning and coating line, 2 STC® furnaces and wire drawing function. In addition to coil processing, the company will also expand its fastener manufacturing capabilities by installing bolt manufacturing equipment at the Shelbyville plant. This new business will initially employ approximately 33 team members and may double these jobs when it reaches full capacity.

"We are very happy to grow our fastener division by acquiring these assets," said Joey Loosle, general manager of Nucor Fasteners. "Adding bolt manufacturing capacity to the Shelbyville plant will help expand our products into the automotive, heavy-duty truck, industrial/MRO and structural fastener markets. Nucor Fastener is already a leader in the field of steel fasteners. This expansion will further strengthen this position."

By recycling steel in electric arc furnaces, Nucor is one of the cleanest steel producers in the world, and its greenhouse gas emissions are one-third of the global steelmaking average and nearly one-fifth of the average blast furnace steel producer one. Nucor's fastener products are made of 97% recycled content, which is more sustainable than fasteners produced using overseas blast furnace steel.

With the recently announced Nebraska engineering bar mill upgrade, this new facility will enable Nucor to better serve the automotive cold heading quality (CHQ) market and provide customers with the highest quality products. The Shelbyville plant will enable Nucor Engineered Bar Group to provide processed coils with superior surface quality for the most demanding automotive CHQ applications.
