Ambe Steels | Jay Ambe Steels
Ambe Steels Ltd. and Jay Ambe Steels Ltd. are two of Nepal’s largest and most trusted steel manufacturers, jointly operating under the single brand “Ambe.”
- Ambe Steels Ltd. — Established in 2009, located in Bhairahawa, with a production capacity of 400 TPD.
- Jay Ambe Steels Ltd. — Established in 2019, located in Nepalgunj, with a production capacity of 1000 TPD.
Together, both plants have a combined production capacity of 1,400 metric tons per day, supplying high-strength TMT rebars and other steel products across Nepal.
What are TMT Rebars?
TMT rebars (Thermo-Mechanically Treated rebars) are the backbone of modern construction, combining strength, flexibility, and durability. Manufactured using advanced Thermex technology, TMT rebars undergo a unique process of rapid cooling and self-tempering that gives them a tough outer surface with a ductile core.
These characteristics make TMT rebars ideal for withstanding heavy loads, resisting earthquakes, and ensuring long-lasting structural integrity. Their superior bendability also allows for easy fabrication and efficient use at construction sites.
Key Properties
- High Strength: Guaranteed yield strength of 500 N/mm², suitable for large-scale infrastructure and high-rise projects.
- Ductility: Flexible core provides excellent bendability without compromising strength.
- Corrosion Resistance: Advanced manufacturing reduces surface impurities and improves resistance to rust.
- Earthquake Resistance: Superior elongation properties make them highly resilient to seismic forces.
- Cost-Effective: Reduced steel consumption due to higher strength leads to lower overall construction costs.
Applications
- Residential and commercial buildings
- Bridges, highways, and flyovers
- Industrial and hydro projects
- High-rise towers and urban infrastructure
With their proven performance, Ambe Steels and Jay Ambe Steels TMT rebars are trusted across Nepal for delivering reliability, safety, and value in every project.

Process and Manufacturing of Steel
How is Steel Made?
A common and useful metal, steel is one of the most widely used metals on earth. However, have you ever wondered how it is made?
Three distinct processes — ironmaking, steelmaking, and rolling — are involved in the production of steel (continuous casting processes).
1. Ironmaking
A process of smelting iron ores into hot metal.
Iron and coal must be solidified before they can be used in a blast furnace. Sintering and coking are the processes of solidifying iron and coal, respectively. Blast furnaces, which can reach heights of 100 meters, are used to stack the pretreated iron and coal. Coal is burned in the furnace, resulting in the melting of iron ore into molten iron by 1,200 degrees Celsius of hot air.
2. Steel Making
A process of removing impurities from hot metal to create crude steel.
In the blast furnace, various impurities are introduced into the molten iron, reducing its strength and durability once it has been hardened into steel. The blast furnace’s molten iron is transferred to a converter furnace using a torpedo car.Pure oxygen is added to the converter furnace in order to remove carbon, phosphorous, and sulfur from the molten steel. At this point, the temperature and substance composition have been precisely adjusted to meet the diverse needs of the customers involved.
3. Rolling
A process of pressure forming crude steel into various finished products.
Finally, continuous casting is used to turn the steel into a variety of useful products. Steel can be given a variety of treatments during the rolling process, allowing for a wide range of applications.
