POSCO Steeleon, a POSCO Group subsidiary specializing in surface-treated steel, obtained quality approval on October 21 to supply stainless steel anti-fingerprint color steel sheets for US-based General Electric (GE). Becoming the first South Korean color steel producer to enter GE's supply chain, the firm completed a two-year collaborative process across POSCO Group affiliates.

Under the partnership, POSCO manufactured customized raw materials, while POSCO International managed local warehousing, logistics, and Just-in-Time delivery systems.

Designed with fingerprint-resistant metallic finishes, POSCO Steeleon's sheets passed durability tests and mass production verifications, securing approval for application on the exterior fronts of flagship premium GE refrigerators in North America.
