ASMS is a joint venture between the Cement Australia Group and the Edward C Levy Co (USA) formed in 1989 to service the slag-handling contract at BlueScope Steel Port Kembla NSW. ASMS is contracted to collect and treating molten slag from blast furnaces and the steel making processes. We are responsible for the processing and marketing of approximately 2 million tonnes of slag per year.
ASMS is a diverse company that can be broken into two major categories:-
- Supplier of Materials to the Construction Industry
- Steel Mill Services
We market approximately 2 million tonnes of slag-based products to the construction industry. Specifically these industries include:-
- Ready Mixed Concrete
- Cement Manufacture
- Concrete Building Products
- Road Building
- Asphalt
To service these markets ASMS produces products directly at the BlueScope Steel furnaces or at our specialised plants. Through two distinct streams of slag we produce differing materials. From blast furnace slag we produce granulated slag, concrete aggregates and blended products such as road bases and masonry products. From BOS slag or steel furnace slag we produce asphalt aggregates, road base materials and specialised fill application materials.
We have a sales team of product managers who are specialists in their fields and they are able to assist you directly with products to meet your specific application.
We provide BlueScope Steel with steel mill services on an every day every hour operation. These services commence at the heart of BlueScope Steel operations at the Blast Furnaces and the Basic Oxygen Steel Making Plant (BOS). At the Blast furnaces we own and operate plant and equipment to process molten Blast Furnace Slag into products that will be acceptable to the construction industry this includes Granulators both remote and attached to the Blast Furnace and Air Cooled Pit Operations. At the BOS we provide slag pit operations, Kish Handling, skull material, rubble and other deleterious products. Additionally to these services we also provide metal recovery, metal refining, road maintenance and construction services, mill scale collection and processing services and environmental services.
