UGITECH operates a fully integrated long product steel mill--melting, rolling, heat treating and cold finishing in the town of Ugine located in the Savoie Alpine region of France, which started steelmaking in 1908. The Ugine-Savoie plant of UGITECH was among the first specialty steel long products producers in the world to achieve certification to ISO/TS 16949 certification, and ISO 14001.

Downstream capabilities include advanced processing technology in bar products, which transforms our upstream products at Trafilerie Bedini that is located near Milan, Italy. Bedini provides special steel solutions for bar products including hex, square and octagon shapes; bars in very small diameters; bars with precise magnetic properties; and for applications requiring special finishes and tolerances.

The European Wire plants, formerly named Sprint Metal, are one of the world's leading producers of drawn wire in stainless steel, nickel alloys, metallic fibers, and other special steel solutions. UGITECH offers a complete line of round wire, shaped wire, and special profiles in more than 100 grades ranging from basic stainless steel up to alloys with high refractory and corrosion resistance properties. The European plants specialize in making a wide array of wire products: welding wire, forming wire, wire lines, free machining (Escomatic), spring wire, coated wire, profile or shaped wire, fine wire, and cold heading quality wire.
