Acciaierie d’Italia: ownership, products, manufacturing sites and procurement

Historical identity and background

The Taranto integrated steelworks is a different industrial model from Italy’s many EAF long-product plants. Company product information describes plate rolling and hot-strip rolling at Taranto, with downstream processing at other sites.

Corporate relationship and name distinctions

The company entered extraordinary administration (commissioners’ management) in 2024 and remained under it through 2025 and 2026. The 2025 sale process did not complete: Baku Steel withdrew in September 2025 and the commissioners reported new offers for all or part of the business; an agreement with the Flacks Group over the Taranto steelworks was reported on 30 December 2025, subject to completion. A four-year (2026–2030) implementation and decarbonisation plan envisages replacing the hot-metal furnaces with electric furnaces, with Taranto operating at a reduced and uncertain rate (blast furnace 1 under judicial seizure and blast furnace 4 shut in September 2025). Its financial, legal and operating situation is material to procurement and should be checked against the latest official updates rather than treated as settled.

Interpretation of the relationship: Acciaierie d’Italia under extraordinary administration → Taranto integrated works; Genoa and Novi Ligure downstream operations. This is a practical corporate identification summary, not a substitute for a current company-registry extract or the manufacturer's certificate.

Manufacturing footprint and product range

Plates and profile slabs, hot-rolled coil, cold-rolled and coated flats; company material also describes pipe mills at Taranto. Quarto plate product pages provide example dimensional ranges, not a current production guarantee.

Practical identification: Taranto; Genoa and Novi Ligure. Check the actual producing works and delivery condition; neither the head office nor the marketing brand alone identifies where a particular heat was melted and rolled.

Certifications, project approvals and documentation

A public portfolio or quality-certificate listing is not universal proof of qualification for EN 10225, EN 10025, EN 10210/10219, API 5L, PED or other contractual standards. The buyer should establish the relevant standard edition, grade, dimensions, manufacturing location, test scope, certificate validity and customer-specific AVL/AML conditions. Where a trader supplies the order, distinguish invoice issuer from the MTC manufacturer.

Procurement takeaway

For offshore or pressure applications, request the actual works, plate route and heat-treatment state, EN 10204 certificate, quality plan, actual available thickness/width, and any client-required approvals. A catalogue does not establish current line utilization or delivery feasibility.

What to confirm before RFQ or PO

• Exact legal manufacturer, manufacturing site and seller, including historical names on existing stock certificates.
• Product type and manufacturing process: primary melt, rolling, welded tube, seamless tube, finishing or stock processing.
• Grade, dimensional range, delivery condition, inspection level and current production availability.
• EN 10204 inspection document, heat identification, traceability and current product/works-specific approvals.
• Commercial terms, country of melt-and-pour, CBAM-relevant documentation where applicable, and shipment origin.
