Exports first-ever large-scale reinforcement steel consignment to Canada

- 

MELWA has achieved a significant breakthrough with its first-ever large-scale export of 15,000 metric tons of reinforcement steel to the Canadian construction market.

This landmark consignment marks the Melwa brand’s entry into one of the world’s most competitive construction arenas, positioning Sri Lankan steel on the global stage. Beyond its commercial success, this achievement reflects the country’s growing participation in international infrastructure projects while making a meaningful contribution to national export growth and vital foreign exchange earnings.

Delivering to international manufacturing and exporting standards, Melwa, a 100% Sri Lankan brand, has engineered special-length reinforcement bars of 15m and 18m, tailored for large-scale infrastructure projects. These custom reinforcement bars reduce welding, minimise wastage, and boost on-site efficiency, meeting the exact specifications of the Canadian construction industry.

Forged in state-of-the-art facilities, these bars meet the highest British and Canadian standards-marking Sri Lanka's first-ever production of 15m and 18m reinforcement lengths. Looking ahead, this specialised consignment showcases the brand's ability to combine certified production with tailored solutions that meet challenging global construction requirements.

Each step of this specialised consignment is executed through a streamlined mill-to-site logistics system, where each shipment is meticulously monitored, bundled, and delivered with precision.
