Comprehensive Flat Steel Portfolio

Our range of flat steel products includes:

  • Hot Rolled Coils (HRC)

  • Cold Rolled Coils (CRC)

  • Tin-Plated Steel Sheets (ETP & TFS)

Each product is manufactured following rigorous quality assurance processes and international standards to ensure consistency, durability, and optimal performance tailored to your specific industrial applications.

i) Hot Rolled Coils (HRC)

The Backbone of Structural and Industrial Steel

Hot Rolled Steel is the foundation material for many steel-based applications due to its strength, versatility, and processability. Produced at high temperatures above recrystallization thresholds, HRC offers excellent formability, weldability, and machinability — making it a primary choice for structural components, pressure vessels, tubes, and heavy-duty equipment.

TRIO HRC Highlights:

  • Thickness Range: 1.2 mm to 25 mm, suitable for light to heavy structural applications

  • Widths: Up to 2000 mm, allowing wide coverage and custom dimensioning

  • Edge Types: Mill edge or slit edge options available to fit various fabrication needs

  • Surface Finishes: Options include pickled & oiled (P&O) for enhanced corrosion resistance, or black surface for cost-effective applications

  • Product Forms: Available in coils, flat sheets, or cut-to-length plates based on customer requirements

Grades & Standards:

  • ASTM A36, A572, A1011 (common U.S. standards for structural steels)

  • EN 10025 (European standards, including S235JR and S355JR)

  • API 5L (for pipe manufacturing grades such as Gr. B, X42, X52, X60)

  • JIS G3101, G3131 (Japanese standards like SS400, SPHC)

Common Applications:

  • Heavy-duty welded pipes and structural tubing for infrastructure

  • Construction beams, bridges, and support frameworks

  • Chassis frames and trailers in commercial vehicle manufacturing

  • Mining, agricultural, and industrial equipment requiring durable steel parts

  • Shipbuilding and offshore platforms needing corrosion and impact resistance

Why TRIO’s HRC?:

  • Exceptional flatness and tight thickness tolerances guarantee uniformity across large coil sizes

  • High ductility and elongation properties enable easy forming and welding without compromising strength

  • Sourced exclusively from Tier-1 steel mills located in Türkiye, CIS, and Asia, ensuring premium quality and steady supply

  • Comprehensive mill test certificates (MTC 3.1/3.2) provide full traceability and assurance

  • Long-term contracts supported with consistent, just-in-time supply chain management

ii) Cold Rolled Coils (CRC)

For High Precision, Smooth Surface, and Premium Applications

Cold Rolled Coils represent the next level of steel processing—beginning with hot-rolled material that is further refined at room temperature to enhance surface quality, dimensional precision, and mechanical properties. Our CRC products are the preferred choice for industries requiring excellent surface aesthetics, close tolerances, and high performance in stamping, forming, and deep drawing operations.

TRIO CRC Features:

  • Thickness: Ultra-thin options ranging from 0.3 mm to 3.0 mm

  • Widths: Up to 1500 mm, optimized for automotive panel lines and appliance manufacturing

  • Surface Finish: Available in bright, matte, or skin-passed finishes tailored for specific coating or painting processes

  • Edges: Choice between mill edge or trimmed edges for precision fabrication

  • Forms: Supplied as coils or packaged sheet packs to suit production line requirements

Grades:

  • Thickness: Ultra-thin options ranging from 0.3 mm to 3.0 mm

  • Widths: Up to 1500 mm, optimized for automotive panel lines and appliance manufacturing

  • Surface Finish: Available in bright, matte, or skin-passed finishes tailored for specific coating or painting processes

  • Edges: Choice between mill edge or trimmed edges for precision fabrication

  • Ideal for high-precision laser cutting, stamping, and bending processes

  • Optional anti-corrosion oiling enhances handling and storage life

Applications:

  • Automotive body panels, door skins, and reinforcements

  • White goods such as refrigerators, washing machines, and ovens requiring aesthetic finish and durability

  • Metal furniture, office cabinets, electrical enclosures needing corrosion resistance and rigidity

  • Roll-formed profiles for door frames, partitions, and decorative trims

iii) Tin Plates (ETP & TFS)

Packaging-Grade Steel with Maximum Protection and Aesthetic Value

Tin plates and tin-free steels are cold-rolled steels coated to provide superior corrosion resistance, printability, and formability, essential in the packaging and decorative metal industries. TRIO INTERNATIONAL supplies premium Electrolytic Tin Plate (ETP) and Tin-Free Steel (TFS), engineered for packaging applications requiring both functionality and appeal.

Our Tin-Plated Steel Sheets, including Electrolytic Tin Plate (ETP) and Tin-Free Steel (TFS), are cold-rolled steel substrates coated with tin or chromium to deliver superior corrosion resistance, printability, weldability, and formability. These materials are the packaging industry’s go-to solution for food containers, paint cans, aerosol sprays, batteries, and decorative metal applications.
