The history of hot briquetted iron (HBI) production and use in South East Asia and the HBI plant located on Labuan Island off the coast of Sabah, Malaysia, are intimately connected. From its start-up in 1984, the plant then known as Sabah Gas Industries and today owned and operated by The Lion Group’s Antara Steel Mills Sdn. Bhd. has gained international recognition for its operational experience and expertise and its technical marketing of HBI as a value-added source of steelmaking metallics. Today HBI is considered steel’s most versatile metallic due to its broad application potential in all types of iron and steel production processes, and the plant on Labuan Island is supplying this high quality steelmaking metallic throughout the region. The paper will describe what HBI is and introduce the Hot Briquetted Iron Association (HBIA), a not-for-profit corporation that represents the global HBI industry. We will introduce the Antara Steel Mills (Labuan) HBI Operation and use actual melting results from Megasteel Sdn. Bhd. and Amsteel Mills Sdn. Bhd. to demonstrate the value of HBI to high quality steelmaking operations.
