Düsseldorf, Germany, 19 May 2025 – Metalshub, the leading software provider for the metals and mining industry, today announced that Compañía Siderúrgica Huachipato (CSH), one of Chile’s most established steel producers, has selected Metalshub to sell available raw material inventories following the suspension of its steel operations in Talcahuano.

Metalshub’s digital platform will support CSH’s divestment process, ensuring transparent, auditable, and efficient transactions for buyers worldwide. CSH is offering its available raw material inventories to interested parties via Metalshub in a time-limited sale linked to the plant’s operational closure.
