Finland-based stainless steel producer Outokumpu has announced that it is opening a sales office in New Delhi in India to tap into the country’s strong demand growth with one of its objectives being education of current and potential stainless steel users about the full potential of the material. A company statement said “In particular the Outokumpu team will aid efforts to boost the country’s low per capita consumption of stainless steel and to effect a shift away from low alloyed, manganese grades, convinced that only more highly alloyed grades can achieve improvement in industrial standards.”
