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.
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 Kryvyi Rih Mining and Metallurgical Plant PJSC ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih (AMKR, Dnipropetrovsk region) has created an autonomous heating system for its coke production facility (CPF) to save energy and improve energy efficiency.
According to information from the primary organization of the Trade Union of Workers in the Metallurgical and Mining Industry of Ukraine (PO PMGU) AMKR on its website, energy specialists have completed a project to create an autonomous heating system at the CCF.
At the same time, with reference to the head of the KHV energy department, Alexander Melnikov, and the head of the steam supply section of the department, Dmitry Khvorostinin, it is specified that previously, heating water for the heating system at KHV was supplied from a neighboring metallurgical production facility. However, in order to use energy resources more rationally and prevent unjustified heat losses, KHV Director Nikolai Galushkin proposed introducing autonomous heating that would operate on the principle of complete self-sufficiency.
Almost everything needed to create an autonomous heating system was found at the enterprise. The largest component of the new system, a storage tank for heating water, had previously been used at the chemical plant.
The heat transfer medium supplied to the heating system was chemically purified water produced at the chemical plant, and it was decided to use low-pressure steam produced in-house to heat it. As a result, a closed-cycle system was created, which is as energy-efficient as possible. Appropriate metering devices were installed to control and regulate the pressure and temperature of the heat transfer fluid.

Since the start of the full-scale war, the Kryvyi Rih Mining and Metallurgical Plant PJSC ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih (AMKR, Dnipropetrovsk region) has invested $325 million in production, according to Oleg Krykavsky, the company’s director of government relations, at the conference “Ukrainian Export: Through Thorns to the EU,” organized by the publication Ukrainska Pravda.
According to him, AMKR operates in difficult conditions, with electricity prices in Ukraine significantly higher than in Europe, because in Ukraine, companies buy expensive electricity on the market a day in advance, while in a number of European Union countries, long-term contracts are in place and special state programs to support metallurgy are being introduced to stimulate economic growth.
In particular, there are special mechanisms for reducing the cost of electricity on the French market through nuclear power plants, and in Germany, there are plans to allocate €6.5 billion and introduce a number of additional measures, including regulating the upper price limit to €60 per MWh (although industry insists on a price of €50), while in Ukraine, prices are constantly rising and have already reached $180 per MWh. Therefore, the Ukrainian government must also implement similar solutions to preserve industrial potential and jobs.
“Despite the current challenges, we continue to invest: during the full-scale invasion, our investments amounted to more than $325 million. These include repairs, modernization, logistics, preparation for European standards, and future capital projects,” Krykavsky stated.
He added that the key tasks for AMKR remain unchanged: integration into the EU, investment in development, and support for Ukrainian production even in the most difficult times.
