North Lincolnshire steel furnaces exceeded all records in April in the production: of. ingots and castings.
The previous record—109,200 tons—was reached in July last year, but this has been beaten with 114,400 tons, an increase of 5,200 tons. Production in April last year was 103,700 tons.
Aggregate production during the first four months of this year was 428100 tons, which exceeded by 28400 tons the figure for the first four months of 1936, then a record high aggregate.
Much bigger outputs of steel in North Lincolnshire will be achieved as a result of the recent starting of additional plant.
