“ORION.GROUP,” a manufacturer of stainless steel equipment and containers (Kyiv Oblast), has launched a mobile production complex that is unique in Ukraine. It allows for the bending, welding, and grinding of metal structures outside the factory—on the customer’s premises. The mobile production complex is used to manufacture and assemble tanks with a diameter of over 5 meters, the transportation of which in assembled form is difficult, expensive, or impossible. The investment in this project amounts to 35 million UAH.
This was announced by Dmytro Kysilevsky, Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Economic Development.
“ORION.GROUP” products for farmers and the food industry are sold with a 25% cost reimbursement to buyers from the state. This program is part of the “Made in Ukraine” policy for the development of Ukrainian manufacturers.
Currently, the ORION.GROUP mobile production complex is being used in the construction of a bioethanol plant in the Ternopil region. After that, the plan is to use this equipment to build an agricultural processing complex in an industrial park in the Khmelnytskyi region.
“ORION.GROUP” manufactures stainless steel tanks for the beer, juice, dairy, bioethanol, confectionery, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. In addition to Ukraine, the company has built plants and production lines in 65 countries worldwide. In 2011–2013, “ORION.GROUP” was engaged by the French consortium NOVARKA to construct the confinement (arch) over the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant.
In 2025, the company’s sales volume amounted to 440 million UAH. During this period, the company paid 97 million UAH in taxes. The company employs 127 people.

JSC “Kramatorsk Heavy Machine-Tool Plant” (KZVV, Perechin, Zakarpattia Oblast), nearly 97.7% of whose shares are owned by former People’s Deputy (2016–2023) Maksym Yefimov, ended January-March of this year with a net profit of UAH 106 million, which is 6.7 times less than the corresponding figure for January-March of last year.
According to the company’s financial statements in the disclosure system of the National Securities and Stock Market Commission (NSSMC), its net revenue, however, increased by 47.7%—to nearly 16 billion UAH.
KZVV reported UAH 202.5 million in gross profit (4.3 times less), while operating profit fell by 9.5 times to UAH 85.2 million.
Retained earnings as of March 31, 2026, amounted to UAH 1.87 billion (UAH 2.12 billion at the beginning of the year).
Compared to the beginning of 2026, the plant reduced its current liabilities by 15.5% to 33.9 billion UAH, while long-term liabilities, having decreased slightly, amounted to 122.1 million UAH.
The main specialization of KZVV, which was relocated from Kramatorsk to Perechin in the summer of 2022, is universal special-purpose machine tools designed for the energy, metallurgical, oil and gas industries, machine building, and rail transport, as well as machine tools for single-unit and small-batch production. The plant also manufactures special-purpose products.
In particular, the company “Friendly Wind Technologies” produces wind power equipment at the plant’s facilities, and in August 2023, the “Friendly Wind Technologies” industrial park was registered in Perechyn.
As reported, in 2025, KZVV increased its net profit by 2.3 times compared to 2024—to UAH 1.41 billion—as net revenue grew by more than 2.6 times—to UAH 50.4 billion.
PJSC Dniprovsky Metallurgical Plant (DMZ), part of the DCH Steel group owned by businessman Alexander Yaroslavsky, is entering the machine-building market: in July, the company began fulfilling orders for the manufacture, repair, and processing of equipment parts.
According to information published in the DCH Steel corporate newspaper on Thursday, since December 2024, the specialized metallurgical equipment repair shop (SCRMU) has been manufacturing non-standard metal structures for third-party organizations. The shop has now expanded its scope of activities and also accepts orders for the repair and manufacture of equipment parts.
At the same time, specialists from the sales department, the supply department, and SMRE engineers monitor tenders announced by companies; quickly assess the feasibility of an order and its cost; and prepare proposals and contracts.
To date, DMZ has already fulfilled several orders from third-party organizations. In particular, in August, a 1925 mm diameter electric motor rotor was machined, for which special equipment was manufactured. Last week, the customer accepted the work and has already delivered another rotor to the workshop for repair.
Currently, the SCPRM also manufactures bevel gears, labyrinth rings, washers, axles for trolleys, and other parts. On August 14, they will begin manufacturing epicycles.
The plant traditionally fulfills orders from the Sukha Balka mine.
Another article reports that DMZ railway workers laid 240 meters of new track and installed a switch at the Novoprokatanaya station. The work was carried out in July and August. The new track connects two railway branches, allowing the plant’s locomotives to run directly from the metallurgical site to the depot and rolling mill No. 2. Previously, the railway depot could only be reached through the metalworks plant, and DMZ paid rent for using its neighbors’ tracks.
In addition, it is reported that two power transformers were disconnected at DMZ to reduce electricity consumption. In July, power supply specialists disconnected transformers at the complete transformer substation No. 70 of the molding and casting shop and at the KTP No. 7 of the oxygen shop. To ensure electricity supply to consumers, a 0.4 km cable was laid to the existing transformers at substations No. 24 and No. 35.
The disconnected transformers supplied electricity to a small number of consumers, so their decommissioning will not significantly increase the load on the existing transformers, the article notes.
Thanks to the shutdown of energy-intensive equipment, the energy consumption of transformers during idle operation has been reduced by 6-7 kW per hour.
DMZ specializes in the production of steel, cast iron, rolled products, and products made from them, such as channels and angles, special profiles for machine building and mining.
On March 1, 2018, the DCH Group signed an agreement to purchase the Dniprovsky Metallurgical Plant.
