The world’s largest aluminium producer, Russian united company UC Rusal has terminated aluminium wire rod (semi-finished stock for cable production) production at the Zaporozhskyi aluminium plant (ZalK) in Ukraine because of the lack of demand. It is said about in a statement of UC Rusal.
UC Rusal terminated the output of aluminium metal in Ukraine in 2011 after the cancellation of a discount on electric power for industrial enterprises, while the output of rod iron was kept on until now. The Zaporozhskyi aluminium plant can produce more than 20 thousand tons of rod iron a year.
