[Ferro-Alloys.com]  Hyundai Steel is expanding its H CORE seizmic steel range of high quality earthquake-resistant structural steel offering advanced performance and safety. Hyundai Steel is at the forefront of the development of a new range of structural steel used across the construction field.  Hyundai Steel first launched Korea’s first seizmic structural steel under the H CORE brand in 2017, in an effort to reduce loss of life and property due to the collapse of buildings during earthquakes. The high-performance steel has the flexibility to ride out the tremors caused by an earthquake, increasing the safety for residents when used in construction. 

Hyundai Steel also introduced the world’s first fire-and-earthquake-proof structural steel to enhance the safety of buildings in extreme conditions in 2019, and developed a high-strength version to reduce the quantity of material required in 2020.With these developments, Hyundai Steel has relaunched the H CORE brand with a focus on premium structural steel with expanded functionality and a wider range.  Having already ensured that the safest steel is available for the construction of buildings, Hyundai Steel is now focused on strengthening the safety of the entire construction process, from planning to building and maintenance through the H CORE range.

H CORE is high-strength, impact resistant and corrosion resistant. 

 Compared to general purpose steel, high-strength products have about 20 to 30 percent higher strength, insuring better structural stability. Impact-resistant steel can be used safely even in coldest regions due to its ability to absorb energy without breaking in the cold.  Corrosion-resistant products maintain their original performance without being corroded by heavy rain or wet conditions.  Hyundai Steel has opened a website as part of the H CORE rebrand, offering information about the features and products available under H CORE. To emphasize the safety of H CORE, the highest quality steel available, Hyundai Steel also released a slogan; “Safety planted, Security H CORE.”

 “We hope that H CORE will be recognized as the best construction steel brand that customers can choose with confidence,” an official at Hyundai Steel said. More information about H CORE is available through the H CORE website and Hyundai Steel’s official YouTube channel, including content targeting younger consumers.
