Steel Dynamics is a growing mini-mill steelmaker and metals recycler based in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

SDI operates five electric-furnace mini-mills producing a wide range of carbon steel products. Flat-rolled steel, SDI's original steel product, accounted for 63 percent of the company's steel shipments in 2010, the remainder being "long products" (bars and beams).

The company employs state-of-the-art technology in its modern, automated steelmaking operations, and achieves high productivity by rewarding employees with incentive-based compensation, stock options, and other benefits. SDI is among the most profitable American steel companies in terms of profit margins and operating profit per ton. Steel Dynamics has a production capacity of 7.4 million tons per year.

Upon acquiring OmniSource Corporation, Steel Dynamics became one of the nation's largest scrap metals processors. Fort Wayne-based OmniSource operates scrap collection and processing facilities at more than 70 locations across the eastern U.S., including shredders operating at 11 sites, and has become a major ferrous scrap supplier to SDI's Indiana steel mills.
