The rapid expansion of high-power EAFs (Electric Arc Furnace) has increased the interest to use DRI as a great option for the continuous charging of electric furnaces in developed countries.
Sponge iron is a valuable source of iron for the production of high-quality steel. With the Direct Reduction technology that has been developed considerably in recent years, sponge iron melting in electric arc furnaces has more qualitative advantages than scrap metal smelting for steel making. Some of the benefits include:
More specific chemical composition
Low levels of impurities (gangue, sulfur, and phosphate)
The impossibility of using cheap scrap
Easy storage and shipment
Continuous automatic charging
Predictable price structure
Fixed power of input electricity
Relying on the knowledge, valuable experience and history, and empowerment of our team, we, Arij Global Trading Co. are supplying our high-quality gas-based DRI to the far destinations in containerized and bulk shipment.
As a supplier of gas-based Sponge Iron with a great history and experience, we also provide cost-effective solutions for the shipment to our customers in complete accordance with their needs, which ultimately fulfills the goal of providing satisfying service.
Sponge iron is used in the iron and steel industry as a substitute for scrap in induction and electrical arc furnaces. Over the years, the shortage of expensive melting scrap has made sponge iron a significant raw material for manufacturing high quality steel.

Coal based Sponge-iron is a metallic product produced through direct reduction of iron ore in the solid state. As such it is also known as Direct Reduced Iron (DRI).After reduction of iron ore pellet the product resembles sponge because of pores left behind after removal of oxygen. As such it is called Sponge Iron
