In the long-term prospect the titanium products output in Russia will increase, according to reports from the Ti-2017 in CIS conference in the city of Yekaterinburg.
The main driver of the output increase and consumption of titanium semi-finished products will be the aerospace industry, while the demand growth is also expected on behalf of energy and medicine industries.
The Russian titanium industry will be influenced by its dependence on raw materials imports, as they are obtained in Russia in small quantities. (Ukrainian metal)
