What It Is: Steel plates are thick, flat pieces of steel used in heavy-duty applications that require structural integrity and strength. They are produced by rolling or forging steel and can vary significantly in thickness, width, and length to meet specific engineering requirements.
Examples: Ship hulls, heavy construction equipment bases, industrial machinery, and load-bearing  beams in buildings.

How It’s Used: In construction and shipbuilding, steel plates are integral to creating load-bearing structures that withstand significant forces. In industrial applications, they are often used as foundations for heavy machinery. When recycled, steel plates can be melted down and repurposed for new projects, reducing the demand for virgin materials and contributing to more sustainable industrial practices.
