The company’s sales policy led to sales of 435.15 ths tonnes of finished products in 2017. The regional sales structure on the domestic market did not change significantly – the top consuming regions included the Central, Urals, and Volga federal districts. In total, domestic sales amounted to 352 ths tonnes in 2017, while export sales amounted to 83 ths tonnes with a 19% share of total sales.

Currently, MMK-METIZ is successfully implementing a large-scale RUB 3.8 bln investment programme supported by MMK. In 2017, it commissioned state-of-the-art equipment for the production of Ě6-Ě12 bolts and nuts. It is adopting production of new DIN standard fasteners as part of an import substitution programme.

MMK-METIZ commissioned equipment for large fastener production, which will allow the Company to develop the production of high tense fasteners due to high-quality heat treatment of the fasteners, and to expand the production mix by adopting production of high-diameter galvanised fasteners.
