Metinvest Group ranked second in the top three of the Sustainable Development Program Rating in Ukraine according to the business publication The Page. This was reported in a statement by the company.
The top three also included the auditing company Deloitte Ukraine and the IT company SoftServe.
The goal of The Page project is to showcase the best ESG practices of Ukrainian companies in 2024-2025. The questionnaires of 15 participants were evaluated according to criteria such as the presence of a strategy and transition plan; measurable KPIs and results; management involvement in processes; the presence of non-financial reporting and audits; innovation and transparency of communications.
The winners were determined by a consolidated assessment of the jury, which included representatives of international organizations and experts in sustainable development platforms.
As noted by The Page, Metinvest demonstrates a mature sustainable development system based on combined annual reporting in accordance with GRI, SASB, and TCFD standards. Despite the challenging conditions of war, the company conducts regular environmental management and energy efficiency audits, and its corporate policy package covers almost all aspects of ESG risks.
In 2024, the group introduced innovative solutions, including machine vision with artificial intelligence to improve production safety. As part of its energy transformation, the company is switching to biofuel and reducing the energy intensity of its rolled products production. In addition, Metinvest is preparing to launch solar power plants with a capacity of 37 MW.
The company’s social initiatives are focused on supporting the country’s defense capabilities and recovery (the Steel Dream and NATO Role 2 underground command posts projects).
It should be noted that over four years of the war, the company has allocated UAH 10.1 billion to support Ukraine. UAH 7.3 billion was allocated to the army as part of the Steel Front military initiative.
As reported by GMK Center, Metinvest maintained relative stability in production in 2025. Pig iron smelting decreased by 2%, and steel smelting by 4%. Production of raw materials remained at the 2024 level, while finished metal products increased by 8%.
