Background

The plant was built in 1896. Originally, the plant included blast-furnace and open-hearth production, and a rolling mill section. After the Russian revolution, the plant was nationalized and transferred to the control of the "Yugostal" trust, which planned to close the enterprise. However, this did not happen, and by the mid-30s of the last century, the TMZ was reconstructed: a new open-hearth production and Mannesmann pilger mills for producing hot-rolled pipes started operating here. In the post-Soviet period, the plant passed into private hands, and since 2002 the plant has been part of the TMK group (Trubnaya Metallurgicheskaya Kompaniya PAO).[1] Since 2013, the open-hearth production has not been operating, and instead of it, a new electric steelmaking shop with continuous casting of steel has been operating.[2]
