Metinvest Eurasia, a wholesale and retail sales channel of Metinvest Group in the Russian Federation, recently commenced sales of electric-welded pipes from Lugansk Pipe Works (LTZ). In February, pipe shipments from LTZ to Metinvest Eurasia warehouses comprised around 4000 tonnes.
From February to April 2012, plans call for Metinvest Eurasia warehouses to be gradually filled with the product range of electric-welded pipes from LTZ. Production capacities of the plant allow production of a wide range of products: square pipes from 15 to 140 mm, square pipes from 30х20 to 180х100 mm, and round pipes with diameters from 51 to 168 mm.
In 2010-2011, the shaped tubes segment demonstrated the highest consumption growth rate among all groups of construction products in the European part of Russia, according to Metinvest Eurasia.
“Adding the product range from LTZ to the lines offered by our metal centers is a logical step to improving customer service. Today we are able to offer the construction sector and metal fabricators with almost complete product range for construction, thus meeting their needs in full,” said Roman Rybalov, CEO of Metinvest Eurasia, LLC.
