According to Danieli, the Tashkent Metallurgical Plant is equipped to annually produce 500,000 metric tons of galvanized and painted strip. 

“This is one of the most modern industrial facilities not only in our republic, but also in the countries of Central Asia,” Uzbekistan President Shavkat Mirziyoyev during a ceremony to mark completion of the facility. 

“The low level of development of ferrous metallurgy in our country complicates the activities of the domestic industrial enterprises. The Tashkent Metallurgical Plant … will make it possible to meet the needs of hundreds of enterprises engaged in the production of building materials and steel structures, household appliances, electrical and packaging for food products. Previously, this need was met mainly through imports,” he added.
