EVRAZ business model
- Our vision
EVRAZ is a global steel and mining company, the leading producer of infrastructure steel products with low-cost production along the value chain.
- Global market trends
In 2019, global steel and raw materials markets remained strong despite the pressure as steel prices corrected from the high levels seen in 2018. Meanwhile, iron ore and coal prices experienced different dynamics. Iron ore prices peaked in July, balancing by the end of the year. Conversely, coal prices were lower amid increased supplies as a result of elevated Asian production and import restrictions in China. In 2020, we expect stable market conditions and reduced price volatility.
