Ural Steel ranks among Russia’s leading producers of strips for large-diameter pipes, pipe billets, heavy plates, and weathering steel (over 100 grades of carbon and alloy steels altogether). The company falls within the top eight steelmakers in Russia.
The history of the company dates back to the pre-war period. However, it is 5 March 1955 which is considered the birthday of the metallurgical giant of the eastern Orenburg Region. On this day, the first blast furnace was commissioned and the first pig iron was produced at the Orsko-Khalilovsky Metallurgical Works (OKhMK, currently known as the Ural Steel).
In 2022, Ural Steel joined forces with Zagorsky Pipe Plant to form a single metallurgical holding company, enabling the company to establish a stable value chain, thus expanding opportunities to use the plant’s products in major O&G and construction projects.
