The BlueScope MCL7 Erskine Park Project is a privately funded, $415 million expansion to the company’s existing facilities at Erskine Park, Penrith. The new Metal Coating Line (MCL7) will produce 240,000 tonnes of additional capacity for BlueScope steel products, used for roofs, house frames and fencing. The proposed development would operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. 

This project is being developed in response to the growing demand for domestic steel within the building and construction industry. It has been classified as a ‘state significant project’ by the NSW government. As such, the planning and execution of all works requires perfect compliance with standards set out by the NSW Department of Planning and Environment.

Nettlefold Projects is engaged to provide professional engineering consulting services, managing the engineering design, implementation and commissioning of the Main Distribution, Balance of Plant and control interfaces.  

The project is expected to be fully commissioned and operational by the end of 2025.
