With these figures, in 2021 Türkiye was Europe’s top crude steel producer, and sixth (6th) largest in the world ranking of steel-producing countries.
Türkiye is also one of the biggest exporters of steel products, holding the sixth place among steel exporting countries and top exporter of reinforcement bars used for construction. With high quality products, competitive prices and effective marketing strategies, Turkish steel exporters has a large market coverage; Turkish steel products have been exported approximately 200 countries and to all regions of the world.
