AAA: ArcelorMittal Anniversaries in August.
One is a vast plant in Eastern Europe, big enough to house the states of San Marino and Monaco together! The other, a perfect example of the rich history of steelmaking in North America. Both are celebrating their long steel tradition: 75 years for Kryviy Rih (Ukraine) and a century for Weirton (US).

It was on August 4 that ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih in Ukraine turned 75. In a moving ceremony, past, present and future came together: A ‘capsule’ containing a message to our 2034 colleagues was laid by CEO Jean Jouet and Trade Union Chairman Yuriy Bobchenko.
“I am sure that, reading this message, our future generations will be proud of us in a quarter of century,” said Jean Jouet. Yuriy Bobchenko told the audience: “We have lived through different times, but we always overcame the difficulties.”
Around 8,000 kilometers away from Kryviy Rih, in West Virginia (US), the 1,000 employees of ArcelorMittal Weirton are also celebrating 100 years of making steel products this month. Many things can happen in a century… and they did! For instance, in 1932, ‘Fortune’ magazine proclaimed Weirton as the largest unincorporated town in the US (it depended entirely upon Weirton Steel Company for almost 40 years) and in 1920, the company’s $93,000 payroll was robbed en route from Pittsburgh, and replaced with… worthless newspaper clippings!
Today, ArcelorMittal Weirton is ArcelorMittal’s only tin plating facility in the US, capable of producing 3,300 feet (more than 1 km) of tin plated steel per minute.
Congratulations to our Weirton and Kryviy Rih colleagues!
