Metinvest has produced a record volume of zinced rolled products
The Mariupol metallurgical plant n.a. Ilyich of Metinvest group in August 2015 reached a historical maximum by the volumes of zinced metal output – 30 thousand tons. About a half of this volume was produced by the European standards.
From May 2015 Metinvest keeps increasing the volume of supplies of this type of products – on average by 18% a month. The production results are growing not only due to the increased seasonal demand for the products of construction but also due to the growing attractiveness of the domestic materials.
The new types of zinced rolled products produced by the EN 10346 European standard out of DX51D, S320GD and S350GD steel marks, are in demand by the domestic consumers – producers of metal constructions, roofing, ventilation systems etc. The materials of Metinvest has a thicker zinced coating (140 g/sq m), that provides durable periods of operation of constructions while low-quality Chinese rolled products – not more than 60 g/sq m.
