History

Saudi Iron & Steel Company (Hadeed), the first fully integrated steel producer in Saudi Arabia, started producing rebars and wire rods in 1983, in Jubail Industrial city. A rebar, or reinforcing bar, is a common Steel bar and is commonly used in Reinforced concrete and reinforced Masonry structures Jubail ( Arabic: "الجبيل" Al Jubayl) is a city in the Eastern province on the Persian Gulf coast of Saudi

SABIC is considered by many to be among the foremost non-oil companies in the Middle East. It was established in 1976 to be a manufacturer and marketer of hydrocarbon and metal products. SABIC’s products include basic and intermediate chemicals, polymer resins and polyesters, fertilizers, metals and industrial gases

Technical Enhancements and Expansions

In 1986, slit rolling was introduced to Hadeed's Rolling Mills and that increased the daily production record by more than 21%. Year 1986 ( MCMLXXXVI) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link displays 1986 Gregorian calendar) In 1987, a scrap car shredder plant was commissioned. With a capacity of 50 tonnes per hour, it shreds cars into pieces small enough to be charged into the electric arc furnaces. An electric arc furnace (EAF is a Furnace that heats charged material by means of an Electric arc. In 1988, Hadeed introduced a new technology (Bar Quenching) to its Rolling Mills in Jubail for the manufacture of concrete reinforcing bars. Year 1988 ( MCMLXXXVIII) was a Leap year starting on Friday (link displays 1988 Gregorian calendar) This process involves high pressure surface quenching followed by self-tempering. As the bar emerges from the last rolling stand, the surface temperature is rapidly reduced by high pressure water jets. This action causes change in the microstructure of the steel, making it harder and stronger. Subsequently the heat retained in the core dissipates out and heats the surface to around 620°C causing another change in the microstructure, which improves the ductility and toughness of the bar. Ductility is a mechanical property used to describe the extent to which materials can be deformed plastically or "stretched" into "wires" without This process can meet increasing demands from structural engineers for higher yield strength combined with good ductility and weldability in reinforcing steel to reduce construction costs.

In 1990, a new dedusting plant went into operation in order to reduce air pollution resulting from the increase in production and to meet the requirements of environmental protection of Al-Jubail Industrial City. Year 1990 ( MCMXC) was a Common year starting on Monday (link displays the 1990 Gregorian calendar) Air pollution is the human introduction into the atmosphere of Chemicals Particulate matter, or Biological materials that cause harm or discomfort In March 1992, a third Midrex 600 direct reduction module went into operation with a nominal capacity of 600,000 tonnes. Year 1992 ( MCMXCII) was a Leap year starting on Wednesday (link will display full 1992 Gregorian calendar) In June 1992, an enhancement project to increase the Steel Plant’s annual capacity to 2. 8 million tonnes was completed. The project included the installation of new steel making units, modifying the material handling, injection and sampling systems and the continuous casting machines. In 1993, the Section and Bar Mill came on stream with an annual capacity of 500,000 tonnes. It added to Hadeed the ability to produce sections such as channels, angles, flats and squares.
