Taiwanese stainless steel pipe manufacturer YC INOX enhances its operational structure by increasing high-value industrial piping, special clean pipes, and artificial intelligence (AI) data center liquid cooling applications, which comprised 68.9% of first-half shipments.

First-half performance delivered consolidated revenues of NT$6.29 billion, operating gross profit of NT$612 million, and net income after tax of NT$73 million, with earnings per share (EPS) at NT$0.14. Second-quarter results showed clear improvements compared to the first quarter.

Overseas expansion in Turkey grew significantly, as the subsidiary achieved second-quarter revenues exceeding NT$900 million and record shipments in June. The Turkish facility operates a cold-rolled coil production line yielding close to 1,500 tons monthly, aiming for 2,000 tons to reduce raw material costs and bypass at least 12% in import duties.
