Sij honours 150 years of industrial ironworks in Slovenia

Jesenice, 24 September - Steel maker Sij marked 150 years since the launch of industrial ironworks in Slovenian lands on Tuesday. Ironworks has a very long tradition in Slovenia, but the groundwork for industrial production was laid only in September 1969, when the Kranjska Industrijska Družba was established, merging several small-scale operations in and around Jesenice.
