Interpipe intends to increase scrap imports in December 2016 – January 2017.
“We continue increasing scrap imports from Moldova and Russia. We also think over other ways to decrease raw materials deficiency. In particular, we are analyzing HBI and even steel billet imports. We also hope that Ukrzaliznytsia starts selling its scrap, which we estimate at 400 thousand tons. If this scrap is brought to the market it will reduce tension”, the company finances and economy director Denis Morozov said. (Ukrainian metal)
