DMZ shipped over 1.5 thousand tons of rolled products to customers in July

Dnipro Metallurgical Plant (DMZ) suspended rolled steel production in July 2024, while in July 2023 it produced 13.3 thousand tons of the relevant products, and in the previous month – 2.4 thousand tons. This is stated in the corporate newspaper DCH Steel.

At the same time, the company’s rolling mills shipped more than 1.5 thousand tons of rolled steel products produced in previous periods to customers.

“Rolling Shop No. 1 is currently preparing to launch, where R-34 and R-43 rails will be produced during the production campaign. The planned production volume is expected to reach 2 thousand tons,” the company said.

In July, metallurgical coke production increased by 7.2% compared to June and decreased by 14.1% compared to July 2023 to 26.1 thousand tons.

In January-July 2024, DMZ’s rolled steel production decreased by 51.8% y/y – to 33.8 thousand tons, while coke production decreased by 1.6% – to 169.6 thousand tons.

After a positive start to the year, which marked the launch of exports of iron and steel products by seaports and, accordingly, an increase in the capacity of domestic producers, the situation may deteriorate significantly in the second half of the year due to problems with energy supply, shortages of personnel due to mobilization, weakening demand, etc. and negatively affect the annual results of metallurgists and the industry as a whole.

As GMK Center reported earlier, in 2023, DMZ increased rolled steel production by 86.2% year-on-year – to 105.6 thousand tons. Last year, the company’s production of metallurgical coke increased by 38.5% compared to 2022, to 292.7 thousand tons.

Last year, DMZ’s rolling mills focused on producing mine supports, mine rails, small volumes of channels and angles for the Ukrainian market. In addition, the company has resumed production of profiles in accordance with European standards.

Dnipro Metallurgical Plant is one of the largest steel companies in Ukraine. It is part of DCH Steel, a division of DCH Group. DMZ produces the largest range of channels and angles in Ukraine. Currently, the company is the only domestic producer of special profiles for the machine building and mining industries.
