Sunlion Piping Engineering Co., Ltd. ("Sunlion") today announced the successful delivery of critical construction materials to the K103 project, a strategic initiative by global chemical giant BASF. The shipment consists of approximately 300 metric tons of high-performance Galvalume steel sheets manufactured by Baoshan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. ("Baosteel").
