Business divisions edit

Starting from January 1, 2018, Interpipe has three operating divisions – Steel, Pipe, and Railway Products.[4]

History edit

On June 6, 2013, Interpipe Steel Mill melted its millionth ton of steel, just 15 months after the launch of the facility.[5]

Interpipe began supplying steel to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) market in the early 2000s with up to 16% of global sales coming from this region. In early 2016, the company registered its trademark in the UAE.[6]

Also in 2016, Interpipe completed a $16.2 million upgrade to facilities in Dnipro with a focus on increased railway related products and production.[7]

In mid-2016 the company announced plans to expand its business presence in Qatar.[8]

Awarded a long-term contract in 2016,[9] in 2017, Interpipe delivered an initial order of 3,000 wheels to the Saudi Railways Organization (SRO).[10]

In 2017, in an effort to combat counterfeiting of steel products, Interpipe introduced an online verification service that customer may utilize to authenticate their steel products.[11]

Also in 2018, Interpipe started the pilot operation of a new line for pipe finishing at Interpipe Niko Tube in Nikopol (the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast of Ukraine). The company invested approximately $8 million into the line construction.[12]
