  • Location: Bud. 3, Vul. Mayakovskogo, Dnipro, Dnipropetrovsk oblast, Ukraine, 49064
  • Coordinates (WGS 84): 48.48079, 34.978097 (exact)

Background

The plant temporarily stopped operating in October 2019, but resumed steel production in May 2020.[1][2] This plant is different from the Dniprovskiy Metallurgical Plant, which is officially named Dniprovsky Metallurgical Combine (Дніпровський металургійний комбінат (Ukrainian)[3], while this plant is named Dniprovsky Metallurgical Plant (Дніпровський металургійний завод (Ukrainian).[4]

The plant suspended steel and iron production in January 2022.[5] As of March 2022, the plant is mothballed due to the war, lack of raw materials and blockage of ports.[6][7]

As of November 2023, the plant has been producing coke and rolled metal products from raw materials supplied by the client.[8][7]

As of November 2024, the plant operated only a rolling mill, with billets supplied by Kametstal in 2023. The steelmaking capacities remain idle.[9]
