The deal is subject to approval by antitrust authorities, Luxembourg-based Arcelor said in a statement on Thursday. Arcelor didn't announce a price.

Ugitech makes long stainless steel products. Smith Bickenbach, based in Dusseldorf, Germany, produces and processes steel, including bars and coil materials.

Ugitech had 630 million euros in sales in 2005, Arcelor said.
