Hazards and safety
HADEED steel products are not hazardous materials. HADEED steel products are safe to use for end applications.
Applications
Used in reinforcing concrete, straightening bars, wire mesh, wire drawing and welding electrodes.
Storage and handling
Reinforcing bars are to be stored in indoor warehouses to protect them from dust, moisture and water etc. to avoid corrosion. Steel products are to be covered properly while in transit to avoid water seepage.
Packaging
Different steel products are packed as per standard practice which protects the product from damage.
Operating companies
Saudi Iron and Steel Company (HADEED).
