<p>Russian steel maker Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works hot rolling mill 2500 in the sheet rolling shop No 4 at Magnitogorsk surpassed the mark of 4 million tonnes of hot rolled products in 2021, for the first time in the entire post-Soviet history. During the 12 months of the past year, the mill produced 4.178 million tonnes of hot-rolled products, which is the highest annual production rate over the past 30 years. A significant increase in the performance of the unit, built in 1960, was largely due to the comprehensive reconstruction completed in 2020.
