The company’s products were intended mainly for the construction and agriculture sectors, as well as for consumer products.
The decline in turnover began in 2017 when the decrease in the business volume led to the reduction of the working capital as well as a significant increase in indebtedness. The measures imposed in 2018 by the European Commission on the imports of certain categories of products belonging to the steel industry forced Dan Steel Group Beclean to secure its raw material within the EU, which created supplementary financial constraints.
Established in 1991, Dan Steel Group Beclean SA had as its main activity the production of ferrous metals in primary forms and ferroalloys (nails, galvanized wire, braided wire, welded mesh, panels, etc.) intended for both the internal and external market (Hungary, Poland, Serbia, Czech Republic, Slovakia).
