ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih increased rolled steel production to 1.56 mln tonnes in 2025

14 January , 2026  

The Kryvyi Rih Mining and Metallurgical Plant PJSC ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih (AMKR) increased its rolled steel production by 1.4% compared to 2024, reaching 1 million 556.6 thousand tonnes in 2025.

This growth occurred amid extraordinary challenges: constant attacks on energy infrastructure, power shortages, high electricity tariffs, and complex logistics. Throughout the year, metallurgical production operated under restrictions.

AMKR CEO Mauro Longobardo called 2025 ‘a year of survival and constant adaptation.’ He noted that the team did everything possible to stabilise operations, optimise costs and retain staff.

The company remains the largest producer of rolled steel in Ukraine, specialising in rebar and wire rod.

The company has a full production cycle, with production capacities designed for an annual output of over 6 million tonnes of steel, more than 5 million tonnes of rolled products and over 5.5 million tonnes of pig iron.

ArcelorMittal owns Ukraine’s largest mining and metallurgical complex, ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih, and a number of small companies, including ArcelorMittal Beryslav.
