Harsco Environmental, a division of Camp Hill-based Harsco Corp., said it will focus on maintaining operational excellence, integrating key performance indicators (KPIs), and reinforcing vital operational activities at CSH’s Chile site.  

The scope of work will remain the same as the previous contract between Harsco Environmental and CSH, with melt shop cleaning, wrecking, scrap chute loading, scrap handling, oxy cutting, scrap shearing, metallic recovery, and slag sales services, Harsco Environmental said. 

Harsco Environmental has serviced CSH, the only integrated steel company in Chile, at its Talcahuano mill for more than 40 years. The steel mill currently produces 850 thousand tons of long steel products annually. 

“Harsco Environmental is pleased to continue to provide services to CSH, a key steel producer and one of our valued customers in Chile,” said Russ Mitchell, vice president and COO of Harsco Environmental. “This contract renewal demonstrates the strength of our long-standing relationship with CSH.”
