New rebar minimill and option on two further plants
Highbar LLC has placed an order with SMS Group for a new rebar minimill, which will be built on a site just outside of Osceola, Arkansas. The minimill will enable Highbar LLC to produce rebar at a sustainable scale with industry leading operating costs and environmental sustainability results. Highbar has recently agreed to continue its cooperation with SMS for another two minimills in the future, each with a capacity of just over 544,000t (600,000 short tons) per year.

Highbar LLC will produce rebar on the new minimill with up to 50% lower carbon footprint compared to other leading rebar mills. © SMS Group
