We were thrilled to attend North American Stainless’ celebration of its expansion at its Ghent, KY plant on Wednesday, January 31, 2024. This $244 million project will increase the plant’s stainless steel production capacity by 20% and add 70 new jobs to the Ghent facility.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshar was in attendance to recognize the economic boost this investment will generate.
The expansion includes a new cold rolling mill, roll grinders, and temper mill; an extensive upgrade of its annealing and picking lines to support the new rolling mill; and an expansion of the Melt Shop Building. Our team is providing architectural, civil, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering services.
With its 4.4 million-square-foot facility in Carroll County, NAS is the largest fully integrated stainless steel producer in the United States. NAS offers a full range of stainless flat products including slabs, billets, plate, sheet and strip, as well as long products including wire, rods, angles and rebar.
