Nucor Corp manufactures carbon and alloy steel and a broad array of steel products—including sheet, plate, bar, rebar, structural steel, joists, decking, and fabricated building components—primarily using electric‑arc furnace technology. The company operates in the North American steel industry, where it also runs the region’s largest scrap‑metal recycling operation that supplies the raw material for its mills. Nucor’s business model is organized into three segments—steel mills, steel products, and raw materials—allowing it to produce, finish and market steel vertically from raw scrap to finished building and infrastructure items. With a production capacity of roughly 27 million tons annually, it is one of the largest steel producers in the United States and a leading provider to construction, automotive, energy and other industrial markets. Its emphasis on low‑cost recycling, flexible mill operations and downstream fabrication gives it a distinctive competitive position within the highly cyclical materials sector.
