In 2014-2015 the largest Ukrainian private mining-metallurgical group Metinvest went through the hoops of military activities in the East, but it still carries on modernization of its companies and lends a helping hand in rebuilding the destroyed infrastructure of the region.
“Metinvest companies have been targets in the military conflict several times. But we survived. We learned to quickly react to the ever changing reality and take non-standard decisions”, said the company CEO Yuri Ryzhenkov.
The group was able not only to keep its employees, but also to update its companies. In particular, it has reconstructed blast furnace #4 at Azovstal and gas-purifying system at Ilyich. (Ukrainian metal)
