Business
DaeChang Steel Co., Ltd. is a South Korea-based company primarily engaged in the processing, manufacturing, and distribution of steel and non-ferrous metal products, operating as an authorized steel service center for POSCO. Founded in 1980 and headquartered in Incheon, South Korea, the company conducts operations across four primary business segments: Steel Processing, Raised Access Floor (RAF) Systems, Aluminum Products, and Real Estate Leasing. In its core Steel Processing segment, the company manufactures and distributes customized flat steel products, including cold-rolled steel sheets and coils (CR); galvanized steel sheets (GI, GA, and EGI); hot-rolled pickled and oiled steel (PO); electrical steel sheets; and stainless steel coils, offering precision slitting, shearing, blanking, and surface-processing services tailored for automotive manufacturers, household appliance producers, electrical machinery makers, and construction companies. In its Raised Access Floor segment, the company manufactures and installs specialized modular flooring systems, including steel-clad access floor panels; high-airtight underfloor air distribution (UFAD) floor systems; seismic-resistant floor structures; and heavy-duty computer room and cleanroom flooring systems supplied to high-rise commercial offices, data centers, semiconductor facilities, and power generation plants. Through its Aluminum division, the company processes and supplies aluminum coils, sheets, and structural profiles for transportation, electronics, and architectural applications. In recent operational developments, DaeChang Steel completed the strategic absorption and merger of aluminum distributor DaeChang AT Co., Ltd. and steel processing affiliate Buil Steel Co., Ltd. to streamline operations, consolidate supply chain synergies, and expand multi-material processing capabilities. Additionally, the company has broadened its high-value building materials portfolio by accelerating the commercial deployment of proprietary eco-certified, airtight, and earthquake-resistant underfloor air distribution solutions to address expanding demand from next-generation artificial intelligence data center infrastructure and modern office construction projects. DaeChang Steel operates production and service facilities across Incheon, Asan, and Paju, serving domestic industrial clients and international export markets.
