Metinvest-SMC has arranged the import of HRS from Romania

Steel trading company Metinvest-SMC arranged the import of hot-rolled sheet (HRS) from Romania. It is reported on the company’s official website.

The producer of HRS, which comes to Ukraine, is the largest Romanian steel enterprise Liberty Galati S.A.

The assortment includes:

  • HRS 8-12x1500x6000 mm S235JR+AR, S355J2+N (uncut edge, packed in bundles),
  • HRS 10-50×1500/2000×6000/12000 mm S355J2+N, S235JR+AR, S235JR+N (cut edge)

The base in Vinnytsia became the first steel center of the company, where the new product arrives. Later, the Romanian-made HRS will be in other warehouses in all corners of Ukraine. The company is working to ensure that customers have the opportunity to order even more popular items of rolled steel.

At the beginning of August, Metinvest-SMC has arranged the import of deficit steel plates from Italian Metinvest Trametal SPA and Ferriera Valsider. The planned volume of deliveries to Ukraine is about 3.5 thousand tons. The first batch with a total volume of about 1000 tons from Ferriera Valsider was available in Lviv.

In mid-May, Metinvest-SMC again opened a steel center in Kharkiv, and western warehouses have become the epicenter of sales since the beginning of the war – the steel centers there began to work with a double load.

As GMK Center reported earlier, Metinvest-SMC launched the supply of hot-rolled sheet for further thermal treatment and production of hard armor protection elements of equipment. The company offers steel 30MnB5 for the production of protective elements.
