The video project of the Pipe Metallurgical Company (TMK) on industrial safety "Armor of pipe workers" won in the nomination "Best Director" of the 20th annual competition for the best video production in the metallurgical industry "Metal Vision`2025", which was held as part of the industrial exhibition "Metal Expo 2025".
A series of seven training videos "Armor of pipe workers" was created with the aim of improving the culture of occupational safety at work. At the Chelyabinsk Pipe Rolling Plant (ChelPipe), part of TMK, tests of various personal protective equipment (PPE) were filmed — they were exposed to fire, welding sparks, heavy objects and loud noises. Thus, the company drew attention to the need to use a helmet, a fire-resistant suit, boots, gloves, a face shield, earplugs and a welding mask to preserve the life and health of employees.
"TMK regularly conducts communication campaigns to draw the attention of employees to the importance of observing occupational safety regulations. The "Armor of the Pipe Workers" videos were broadcast not only on information screens at enterprises, but also on our social networks, where they collectively gained more than 150,000 views, as well as on TMK corporate television streaming on RUTUBE, which has more than 430,000 viewers. Thus, the project went beyond the company and, in fact, became our contribution to strengthening industrial safety in the industry as a whole. We are grateful to the award experts for their high appreciation," said Polina Ugryumova, Head of TMK Corporate TV.
TMK traditionally participates in the Metal Vision competition, becoming a laureate or winning prizes. In 2024, the video "The second life of things", which tells about the advantages of electric steelmaking from the point of view of ecology, won in the nomination "Best scenario work".
