It was back in 1702 when Tsar Peter the Great gave the command to establish the very first iron smelting furnace in Lipetsk region.
The first integrated plant was founded in 1931. The blast furnace no.1 was started the production only three years later, but due to the approaching world war battlefront most of the equipment was transported to the Chelyabinsk plant beyond the Urals.
Production in Lipetsk was restarted in early fifties. In 1951 two new blast furnaces were put into operation, in 1957 hot strip mill followed and in 1959 the electric steel making shop with continuous caster were commissioned as the first in the world. The BOF shop was combined with the caster as well in 1966.
