Ultra-high power 300-millimeter electrode rods developed by POSCO Future M are seen inside a building of POSCO's R&D center in Pohang, North Gyeongsang Province, in this handout photo released by POSCO Future M, Thursday. The company said it became the first Korean company to develop technologies to produce electrode rods, the key materials for steelmaking. The company expects domestic steelmakers to reduce reliance on imported electrode rods, avoiding fallout from global supply chain disruptions. Courtesy of POSCO Future M
