About the Company
Evraz North America manufactures steel. We also manufacture excellence, drive success and build careers for our employees. Our team members come from diverse backgrounds and work together to solve problems, contribute ideas and develop leading-edge products and processes that ensure success for our customers and our business. Our core values influence our interactions with each other and how we conduct business. In addition to an overarching safety commitment, we strive to create value, take ownership of results, demonstrate a passion for improvement and enrichment through collaboration, and lead with humility. EVRAZ melts more than 2.5 million tons of recycled metal scrap each year to make steel products at our safe and efficient facilities. Through our Reading Sparks™ children`s literacy program, established in late 2012, we have donated more than 20,000 books, established Book Nooks in schools and community centers, and supported reading programs in over 45 elementary schools. We also fund scholarships and trades apprenticeships that help deserving students and support business and technical education in our communities. At Evraz North America, we manufacture engineered steel products for rail, energy and industrial end markets at six production sites located in the USA (Portland, Oregon; Pueblo, Colorado) and Canada (Regina, Saskatchewan; Calgary, Camrose and Red Deer, Alberta). We are the largest North American producer by volume in the rail and large diameter pipe markets, and we hold leading positions in the Western Canada oil country tubular goods, small diameter pipe and West Coast plate markets.
