In 2025, Kametstal Plant, part of Metinvest Mining and Metallurgical Group (Kamensk, Dnipropetrovsk region), carried out a series of important equipment repairs and expanded its product range by seven items.
According to the company, in 2025, despite the obstacles posed by the war, the company continued to operate, develop and support the economic strength of the region and Ukraine.
Thus, despite logistical difficulties and energy instability, Kametstal implemented the most ambitious capital repair programme of the war years, the most important of which were the overhaul of blast furnace No. 9, a complex of overhauls of the main equipment of both converters, the installation of furnace ladle No. 1, MBLZ-1, and major repairs of the section rolling and pipe mill.
It is noted that Kametstal expanded its product range by seven items and once again became the leader among Metinvest’s enterprises. The plant was the first among the group’s enterprises to commission a gas piston power plant to generate its own electricity. This made it possible to increase the energy security of the main production equipment during wartime.
In the converter shop, continuous casting machine (CCM) No. 1 was reconstructed: important electrical equipment, automated control systems, and key equipment of the machine’s drawing and straightening devices were upgraded in two stages. The electrical equipment of CCM No. 2 was also modernised.
In addition, the construction of new above-ground high- and medium-pressure water pipes to support the technological processes of the converter and lime-burning shops in particular was completed and put into operation.
In 2025, the company invested almost UAH 43 million in improving working conditions at the enterprise.
Kametstal is part of the Metinvest Group.
