About

The Canadian Steel Producers Association (CSPA) is the national voice of Canada’s $15B steel industry. Our member companies annually produce approximately 13 million tonnes of primary steel and pipe and tube products in facilities located across Canada. Domestic steel operations directly employ some 23,000 Canadians while supporting an additional 100,000 indirect jobs.

Canadian steel producers are a critical component of Canada’s economy, serving the needs of North American customers with high quality, competitive, and innovative products. Key market segments for member companies include: automotive; energy discovery, extraction, and transport; major infrastructure projects; commercial/residential construction; renewable energy creation; and many general manufacturing applications.
