英国克鲁斯集团
   1999年6月，英钢联和荷兰霍高文公司宣布了合并的计划，这意味着一个金属工业的新巨人将要产生。之后数月，随着新的经营结构和管理方式的确定，新公司的成立变成了现实。1999年10月6日，新的公司正式宣告成立。同时，Corus Group的股票开始进入交易市场。
　　Corus Group作为一个真正的国际性金属工业集团，拥有遍布世界各地的员工66,000人，融合了国际性的专业技术和地区性的服务，使其成为一家创新的、充满活力的公司，它将吹响金属工业新的号角。“Corus Group(Corus)”这个名称是我们新公司的一种强有力的标志，以区别我们的竞争对手。新公司的标志，以其简单、明显，有力地认证了Corus Group的产品和服务，反映了新公司全体员工的信心和决心。Corus Group有潜力成为全界金属工业的领导品牌，实现它是每一个员工的共同心声。
　　1999年10月6日，通过英国钢铁公司和Koninklijke Hoogovens的合并成立了Corus公司，把国际专业技术与当地的服务相结合创建了一个有创新的金属公司。总部设在伦敦，由遍布全球范围的23家商业单位构成。伦敦证券交易所、纽约证券交易所和阿姆斯特丹证券交易所上市。公司每年销售额为90亿英镑（相当于160亿美元），在超过40个国家拥有48000名员工，并且在全球建立了销售办事处和客户服务中心网络。
2004年，克鲁斯钢铁产量约为1900万吨，产品主要销售到欧洲。作为世界排名第八的钢铁制造商，其主要的工厂分布在英国、荷兰、德国、法国、挪威、比利时和加拿大,位于海边的克鲁斯IJmuiden工厂是欧洲最大的单点钢铁制造工厂。克鲁斯的铝制品制造基地位于德国和比利时，拥有制造50万吨的铸造铝制品生产能力，而且最近与最重要客户成功续约。克鲁斯于近日宣布了与空客超过5年（2007-2011）的合约，合同期销售额超过5亿5千万美元。
    2005年公司产量为1818万吨，世界排名第9位。2007年克鲁斯并入印度塔塔钢铁公司，总产量世界排名第6位。　　克鲁斯业务
　　建筑钢材占克鲁斯销售的最大市场份额，因此也是业务战略发展的重中之重。众所周知，钢铁已经成为建筑领域中相当重要的建材，同时正在改变着我们的发展前景。从整个英国来说，80%的工业建筑与70%的商业高层建筑采用钢结构。在未来几年，西欧的建筑行业预期将以1.5%~2%的速度增长，与此同时到 2012年英国的钢铁建筑市场预计可以增长30%。
　　克鲁斯宗旨
　　克鲁斯的宗旨是与主要市场的重点客户合作开发产品，并且与全球研究所共同研发尖端的、创新的技术。最近克鲁斯为美国宇航局航天飞机成功进入太空做出了贡献。克鲁斯被美国宇航局认定为唯一自愿并能生产用于制造航天飞机方向舵部件的航空等级工程钢材料的制造商。“发现号”航天飞机方向舵的部件是由克鲁斯采用真空电弧在熔(VAR)方法生产的高精密钢铁制造而成。克鲁斯在过去的18个月里，在英国的工程钢业务方面投资约1亿英镑（相当于1亿8千万美元），其中包括需求不断增长的航空用钢材市场。
达涅利和原霍高文工程技术公司新近合资成 立了达涅利-Corus Group工程技术公司。达涅利是国际上冶金设备的著名供应商之一，在炼钢、连铸、轧制和涂层生产上拥有许多先进的技术产品。而霍高文工程技术公司是在钢铁生产上游炼铁、炼钢领域享有盛誉的技术公司。联合不仅意味着产品和服务范围的延生，还意味着能力、经验和智慧的结合。这样的联合将使公司有竞争力，更有创造力和更有想象力的去回答和解决客户的问题。

    Corus在中国
　　近年来，中国经济高速发展，克鲁斯在发展中国家和地区不断寻求投资和市场机会，并将中国视为采购和供应的重要战略中心。克鲁斯考虑合适的时机加强与中国冶金相关企业合作的思想是开放的，并体现对中国未来充足信心。通过此次采购会的举办，克鲁斯致力于在中国建立坚实，长期的合作关系。
