Further jobs lost as coke ovens and blast furnace at Redcar steel mill are to be closed

Multiple jobs are likely to be lost as the coke ovens and blast furnace at SSI UK’s Redcar steel mill are to be closed, a news report has been able to reveal.

The SSI was wound up by the High Court in Manchester on 2 October 2015 at the company’s request after it confirmed plans to mothball some facilities.

The official receiver, Ken Beasley, appointed liquidator by the Court, has maintained the site since that time to ensure its safety while discussions with interested parties about purchasing the facility in working order take place.

However, Beasley has now said that there is "no realistic prospect of a buyer being found and the priority now is to close the ovens down safely".
