Steel Summit: Schneider sees SDI 'on the edge of a very good run'
Written by Kristen DiLandro
Steel Dynamics Inc. (SDI) President and Chief Operating Officer Barry Schneider remains bullish about the Fort Wayne, Ind.-based company’s position in the current market.
SDI’s employee #96 called the attention of the SMU Steel Summit audience to the steelmaker’s investment in a Mississippi-based bio-carbon facility. He said the $300 million project converts forestry waste into carbon input, potentially reducing Scope 1 emissions by 30%.
