What PJSC ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih does

PJSC ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih is a vertically integrated steel producer located in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine, operating as a subsidiary of ArcelorMittal S.A., the world's largest steel producer. The plant was acquired by ArcelorMittal in 2005 (then known as Kryvorizhstal) and runs a full iron-ore-to-finished-steel cycle, including iron ore mining and concentration, sinter, coke production, pig iron, steelmaking, continuous casting, and rolling. Product output spans iron ore concentrate and pellets, coke, pig iron, steel billets, rolled steel, wire rod, and fittings/welding electrodes. Customers are industrial manufacturers, construction-sector buyers, and the domestic Ukrainian steel-consuming industry, with historical export dependence on the EU market.

The company generates revenue by selling rolled steel and upstream inputs (ore, coke, pig iron) under multi-year contracts to industrial and construction buyers, with prices historically indexed to international steel benchmarks. Over 20 years the company has invested $11B+ in modernization, contributed UAH 114B+ in taxes, mined 400M+ tonnes of ore, and produced 100M+ tonnes of steel. It employs 22,000+ people and accounts for an outsized share of Ukrainian industrial output, with the broader Ukrainian steel/mining sector representing roughly 7% of GDP, 15% of exports, and 30% of rail and port cargo.

The business is currently lossmaking due to the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which adds $60-90/tonne to export costs and has eliminated EU access equivalent to half of annual production, combined with elevated domestic electricity tariffs and war-related logistics disruptions. The company holds ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications, received the Worldsteel Excellence in People Award 2024, and achieved a zero-fatality year in 2025 (the first since 2006), with accident frequency falling from 0.59 to 0.32 per million man-hours.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Iron Ore Iron ore extracted and processed through mining and enrichment operations for use as feedstock in the company's own steel production and for metallurgical use.
• Coke Coke produced through the company's coke-chemical operations, used as a reducing agent and fuel in blast furnace steelmaking.
• Steel Steel produced through metallurgical operations including blast furnace steelmaking; output in 2025 was 6.52 million tonnes of rolled steel, materially reduced from pre-war 2021 levels due to wartime conditions and the EU's CBAM carbon border levy.
• Rolled Steel Products (Rolled Steel, Wire Rod, Fittings, Billets) Finished long steel products including rolled steel, wire rod, fittings, and billets supplied to industrial manufacturers and construction companies as raw material inputs.

Emerging players

• JSW Steel: India's largest integrated steel producer with captive iron ore and expanding capacity. Comparable integrated business model with focus on emerging-market growth, increasingly relevant as global steel demand shifts toward Asia.

Broad incumbents

• Salzgitter AG: European integrated steel producer focused on flat and sectional steel products. Comparable as a blast-furnace steelmaker directly impacted by CBAM, competing for the same EU customer base AMKR historically supplied.
• ArcelorMittal: The parent company and world's largest steel producer operating across 60+ countries. Comparable as a global integrated steelmaker with iron ore mining, but operates at a vastly larger and more diversified scale than the Ukrainian subsidiary.
• U.S. Steel: American integrated steel producer with iron ore mining (Minnesota) and blast furnace steelmaking. Comparable integrated structure and end-product mix, but with stable North American market focus and no exposure to war/CBAM.
• Tata Steel: Global integrated steel producer with iron ore mining and steelmaking operations across India and Europe. Comparable integrated business model and product portfolio, but operates at much greater scale and geographic diversification.
• ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe: Major European integrated flat steel producer serving EU automotive, construction, and industrial customers. Comparable as a blast-furnace-route steelmaker affected by CBAM and EU decarbonization policy, directly competing for the same EU customers AMKR has lost.

Direct peers

• MMK (Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works): One of the world's largest integrated steel producers, operating iron ore mining, sinter, coke, and blast furnace steelmaking. Directly comparable in process route, integrated structure, and finished steel product portfolio.
• Metinvest: Ukraine's largest vertically integrated steel and mining group, with iron ore, coking coal, and steel operations comparable to AMKR. Operates in the same country under similar wartime conditions, competing for domestic and EU market share, and is the most direct head-to-head peer.
• Severstal: Russian integrated steelmaker with captive iron ore (Karelsky Okatysh and Olcon) and coking coal assets. Highly comparable vertically integrated structure serving construction, industrial, and export markets like AMKR.
• NLMK (Novolipetsk Steel): Russian integrated steel producer with iron ore mining (Stoilensky), coke, and steelmaking operations using blast furnace technology. Closely comparable vertically integrated model and end-product mix (billets, slabs, rolled steel) to AMKR.
