Ukraine's largest vertically-integrated
steelmaking company
Metinvest has announced that its subsidiary
Ilyich Iron & Steel Works of Mariupol has launched
production of DC01 cold rolled products according to European standard EN 10130. These products are in high demand in key steel export markets.
Ilyich Iron & Steel Works of Mariupol started
manufacturing DC01 rolled products in coils with a weight of up to 16 mt from BOF steel in its cold rolling shop. Previously, cold rolled products were manufactured mainly from 08kp OHF steel according to GOST, which restricted sales.
Metinvest's customers can now purchase 0.5-2.0 mm thick and 500-1,250 mm wide products, with cut edges. The mechanical and chemical properties of the rolled products are fully in line with European standards.
DC01 rolled steel is widely used to manufacture pipes, structural elements, heating units, household appliance cases and other products. DC01 cold rolled products manufactured at
Ilyich Iron & Steel Works of Mariupol are planned to be delivered to Europe and to the Middle East.
