The company shut down Blast Furnace B for repairs in September 2025 and attempted to restart it in October of the same year. However, the restart process has not been successful since then.
The cooling process lasts for several months
The cooling phase will begin in the coming days, with the total duration expected to last for several months before the furnace can return to full operation. The company stated that the decision was made to ensure a safe restart of the installation.
ArcelorMittal Spain added that it will strive to minimize the impact of the temporary shutdown by organizing the necessary resources to continue meeting customer needs during the downtime.
