History and Development

CSN was founded in 1941 in Brazil as part of the country’s industrialization strategy, with the objective of establishing a domestic steel industry.

The launch of its main steel operations marked a significant milestone in Brazil’s economic development, supporting infrastructure and industrial growth. Over time, the company expanded its production capacity and diversified its operations.

A major turning point occurred with its privatization, which led to modernization, efficiency gains, and expansion into new segments such as mining, cement, and logistics.

In recent years, CSN has focused on strengthening its integrated model, expanding mining operations, and improving operational efficiency, positioning itself as a key player in global steel and iron ore markets.
