& bsp; & bsp; A significant event took place in the section rolling shop No. 2 of OJSC “BMZ” - the management company of the “BMK” holding - the 2 millionth ton of products was produced. "Yubileiny" rolled products were exported to the Netherlands.
Section rolling shop No. 2 (SPC-2), commissioned in 2015, produces a wide range of wire rod, bar, rebar and reel steel. In 2018, 624.5 thousand tons of products were produced here, 39% of which was used to meet the needs of steel wire workshops, 61% worth almost $ 239 million were sold to third-party organizations. At the same time, 79% of the shop's sales are shipments outside the Republic of Belarus.
& bsp; & bsp; In 2018, Guatemala, Denmark, Tunisia, Liechtenstein, Ethiopia and Cameroon were added to the export geography of SPC-2, which already includes 40 countries. The leaders in the import of SPC-2 products last year were Israel, Germany, the Netherlands, Russia and Lithuania. Regular consumers of the rolled products produced in the workshop are such recognized companies as Mahidra Forgigs AG, Hammerwerk Fridige AG, Schodelmaier GmbH-Presswerk, Timke, Hirchvogel AutomotiveGroup, which produce various components for the global automotive industry.
& bsp; & bsp; Along with the expansion of the profile and brand assortment (more than 50% of the innovative products of the plant are produced in SPC-2), the rolling shop No. 2 allowed BMZ to increase the production of products with a higher added value, which had a positive effect on the economy of the enterprise. In 2016, despite the unfavorable market conditions, the increase in proceeds from the replacement of cast billets for the products of a small-section wire mill, taking into account the consumption ratio, amounted to $ 8 million, for 2017 & dash; $ 33.1 million, in 2018 - $ 49.9 million. The profitability of sales from the marginal income in 2018 was about 10%, the resulting marginal income made it possible to fully compensate for the interest for the past year on loans raised for the construction of the workshop.
