Gwangyang Steelworks Establishes Support System for Urea Solution Quality Analysis to Achieve Mutual Growth with Local Partners

Supporting Hanseung Chemical's Stable Production Quality for Industrial Urea Solution Supply to Gwangyang Steelworks

Establishing Quality Analysis Support System for Hanseung Chemical Seeking New Opportunities with Automotive Urea Solution

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seon-sik] POSCO Gwangyang Steelworks (Director Kim Ji-yong) has initiated the establishment of a win-win growth system to help Hanseung Chemical, a local urea solution manufacturer, achieve stable production quality.

Hanseung Chemical (CEO Kim Sang-su) is a urea solution manufacturer located in Gwangyang Chonam Industrial Complex, supplying industrial urea solution needed for the power plant and hot-rolling furnace of Gwangyang Steelworks.

Under the corporate citizenship management philosophy, the Quality Technology Department of Gwangyang Steelworks recently set up a urea solution quality analysis support system to lay the foundation for win-win growth with Hanseung Chemical, which is seeking new avenues amid the recent shortage of urea solution supply.

Going forward, the Chemical Testing Section of the Quality Technology Department will support the production of high-quality industrial urea solution by periodically analyzing samples requested by Hanseung Chemical and providing the results.

Additionally, within this month, Hanseung Chemical, which is obtaining automotive urea solution quality certification from the Korea Petroleum Quality Management Institute, will be assisted in adjusting and producing industrial urea solution with components suitable for vehicle use.

Through this support, Gwangyang Steelworks expects not only to secure the stable quality of the industrial urea solution previously supplied but also to obtain vehicle-grade urea solution for use in the steelworks' shared vehicles once certified by the Korea Petroleum Quality Management Institute, thereby achieving win-win growth with local partner companies.

Lee Sang-min, leader of the Quality Technology Department at Gwangyang Steelworks, said, “We are pleased to contribute to solving the socially problematic shortage of automotive urea solution by fully utilizing Gwangyang Steelworks' analysis infrastructure,” adding, “We will continue to take the lead in minimizing inflection points by jointly resolving issues faced by suppliers and customers.”

Lee Jong-cheol, head of Hanseung Chemical’s Gwangyang branch, stated, “Based on the industrial urea solution analysis results from Gwangyang Steelworks, we will do our best to resolve the urea solution shortage in the local industrial field through continuous efforts to develop automotive urea solution.”
