High-quality steel does service in many forms, from beautiful and sturdy skyscrapers to bridge supports, roads, automobiles and household goods. High-grade manganese ferroalloys are essential to achieve steel of the requisite strength and flexibility. CDK works with advanced technologies in ferroalloy production developed over long years, and the know-how and plant that enable low-cost supply.

Ferroalloys are alloys whose primary component is iron with nonferrous metals. Manganese ferroalloys are auxiliary materials added to change brittle iron into tough steel.		A guide to the CDK high-carbon ferromanganese production process.
Electrolytic manganese is used primarily when compounding manganese with steels averse to phosphorus, carbon or silicon.
