“Zaporizhabrasive” announces its return to the UK market. For many years, the abrasives of electrocorundum produced by our company have been used in the engineering, metallurgical and refractory industries of the UK. However, after the country left the EU in 2020, the validity of previously obtained permits was terminated, which created significant barriers to export.
The company has made considerable efforts to overcome these obstacles: consultations were held with British partners, regulatory experts and certification bodies. Cooperation with the leading distributor of construction materials in the UK – Kumichel – played an important role.
The result was the signing of a contract until the end of 2026, which resumes the supply of electrocorundum to the UK market.
“We are not just returning to the UK market – we are proving that Ukrainian industry can be competitive on the global stage. New challenges and opportunities lie ahead, and we are ready to accept them,” said Yulia Haniuk, Senior Advisor to the Chairman of the Board.
