Dnepropress Steel (ТОВ «ДНЕПРОПРЕСС СТАЛЬ») is a Ukrainian metallurgical manufacturer headquartered in Dnipro at Bohdan Khmelnytskyi Ave., 139, operating a full-cycle production facility for custom metal forgings. The company was established in 2017 and runs an integrated process from scrap yard through induction and electric arc melting, Argon Oxygen Decarburization (AOD) refining, free-form forging on 1200 and 3500 ton hydraulic presses, heat treatment, mechanical machining, and an in-house ISO 17025 accredited laboratory for chemical, mechanical, metallographic, and non-destructive testing. Nameplate capacity is 10,000 tons of metal per year with a stated expansion runway to 50,000 tons.

The product portfolio spans steel ingots (3-15 tons), round bars (OD 150-700 mm, length up to 6,500 mm), rectangular bars, solid discs, ring-shaped discs, stepped shafts, transition shafts, and crankshafts, manufactured from austenitic, duplex, and super-duplex stainless steels, nickel-based super-alloys, carbon and structural steels, and titanium alloys (including VT-20, VT-9, and OT-4-1). End markets include chemical engineering, automotive, aviation, conventional energy, nuclear power, oil and gas, and general industrial sectors, served through qualified-supplier relationships with named Ukrainian accounts such as Centravis Production Ukraine, NNEGC Energoatom, Motor Sich, Metinvest Holding, Interpipe, and KCKBA, and European distribution partners including Steel Service Krefeld GmbH, Merseyside Metal Services, Stappert, ABRS Group SA, and Overseas Metal Special.

The business model is built on enterprise field sales with project-specific, quote-based pricing and no published price list, supported by direct-to-customer delivery with protective packaging and full certification documentation. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 quality management certification, ISO 17025 laboratory accreditation, EURO-1 European certification, and a 2025 international environmental certificate, and it offers toll forging of customer-supplied materials alongside in-house mechanical processing and heat treatment services.
