The most recent milestone in the internationalisation of the stainless steel business was the establishment of Shanghai Krupp Stainless in December 1997. The joint venture with the Chinese steel company Shanghai Pudong Iron & Steel (Group) Co., Ltd. under the management of Krupp Thyssen Stainless GmbH will supply the Chinese market with stainless steel flat products. The first step is the construction of a cold rolling mill in Shanghai with a capacity of 72,000 tonnes per year. This will be subsequently expanded into an integrated stainless steel mill.
