In 2025, AMKR increased steel production by 2.3% to 1 million 688.9 thousand tonnes. This is the second consecutive year of positive dynamics after a sharp recovery in 2024.
The growth was made possible by the team’s efforts to stabilise the operation of key units in wartime conditions. However, as noted by management, production operated with restrictions due to unstable power supply and the need for constant re-planning of work due to attacks on the power grid.
At the end of the year, the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) put additional pressure on export-oriented production, the effects of which the company expects to feel as early as 2026.
ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih is the largest producer of rolled steel in Ukraine. It specialises in the production of long products, in particular, 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.
