Scunthorpe steelworks, which is set to be sold by owner Tata Steel
Tata Steel’s iconic Scunthorpe steelworks are set to be sold after the company agreed to sell its Long Products division, which employs 6,000 UK workers, to Geneva-based firm Klesch Group. As well as Scunthorpe, the sites affected by the deal include a plant in Teeside, Dalzell and Clydebridge in Scotland, as well as a workshop in Workington. Smaller sites in France and Germany are also included in the proposed deal, which has provoked the anger of UK trade unions.
