Overview
Innovation is our foundation…
Midrex was founded on an idea. Dedicated pursuit of that idea led to our corporate success. Continuing to learn and adapt based upon our practical experiences fuels our innovation…and that in turn leads to new ideas.
The need for a new source of metallics in the global steel industry led to the development of the MIDREX® Process more than 40 years ago. Development of the technology was just the beginning as Midrex took this process and executed projects worldwide, overcoming technical, geographic and logistical obstacles.
Although we do not own and operate these plants, we stay involved with plant operation through our technical services and aftermarket support. This synergistic relationship enables us to continue to innovate by addressing new challenges and provide better solutions for our clients.
It is this continual improvement that made the MIDREX® Process the world’s leading technology for the direct reduction of iron ore. For more than two decades, MIDREX® Plants have produced 60 percent or more of the world’s DRI each year and we continue to develop some of the industry’s most efficient and successful technologies.
