View PricingHuta Czestochowa Achieves Major Milestone with Plate Mill Launch
On February 3, 2025, Huta Czestochowa in Poland reached a pivotal milestone as the steel plant launched production in its plate mill, Walcownia Blach Grubych, marking a significant step in its recovery journey following over a year of downtime. As reported by gmk.center, this development signifies the plant's approach to achieving full operational capacity under the management of its current tenant, Weglokoks.
The plate mill began operations precisely at 7:00 a.m. by rolling the initial batch of S235 steel plates, predominantly catering to the Polish construction sector. The renewed operations came with an order backlog of 13 thousand tons, hinting at an optimistic surge in demand. The facility's production prowess allows for the manufacture of over 40 thousand tons of steel plates per month, with thicknesses ranging from 6 to 150 mm.
This advancement forms part of a broader recovery and strategic enhancement plan since the plant was leased to Weglokoks in November 2024. The steelmaking shop, crucial to this operation, resumed in January 2025 following successful test melts that adhered to quality benchmarks, thereby securing the plant's raw material necessities and stabilizing production.
As context to the Polish steel market scenario, according to IndexBox data, the export value of hot-rolled steel products in Poland in 2024 was USD 546.2 million, a decrease from USD 848.1 million in 2023. Notably, the Czech Republic emerged as the prime export destination in 2024, with a value of USD 178.2 million, while Germany, Slovakia, Hungary, and Austria comprised the other significant markets.
Looking forward, the future ownership of Huta Czestochowa hinges upon an auction slated for February 17, 2025, post its liquidator's assessment that values the endeavor at PLN 227 million (around USD 54.9 million). Meanwhile, city governance and Polish authorities aim to enshrine the plant among strategic enterprises to safeguard it from potential hostile takeovers.
This report provides an in-depth analysis of the hot-rolled steel products market in Poland. Within it, you will discover the latest data on market trends and opportunities by country, consumption, production and price developments, as well as the global trade (imports and exports). The forecast exhibits the market prospects through 2030.
