Ilyich to increase output and continue repairs in October

The Ukrainian flat steel producer Ilyich Iron and Steel Works of Mariupol (Ilyich) has said that, following its September output decrease mainly caused by the accident at its power plant, in October this year it plans to produce 414,000 mt of pig iron - up 12.5 percent month on month, and 500,000 mt of crude steel - up nine percent month on month.



According to Ilyich's general manager Vladimir Boyko, currently the most important thing for the plant is to ensure the implementation of its working schedule and to operate the rolling mills 1700 and 3000 at full capacity.
