URALGIPROMEZ congratulates TsNIIchermet on its anniversary

An international metallurgical forum on the prospects for metallurgical technologies took place on 26 April in Moscow at the I. P. Bardin Central Research Institute for Ferrous Metallurgy (TsNIIChermet). Partners from manufacturing and research organisations attended the event, which marked the institute’s 80th anniversary.

As a leader in Russian metallurgical science, the institute has followed a remarkable path: from its foundation in the 1940s and research for the national economy, through the development of the first industrial continuous steel casting installations in the 1950s, to today’s world-class work. This includes creating unique alloys, materials and metallurgical technologies, and producing scarce metal products for the aerospace, medical, cryogenic and defence industries.

On behalf of the Uralgipromez team, General Director Sergey Yuryevich Kulakov congratulated TsNIIChermet General Director Viktor Vladimirovich Semyonov and all employees on the institute’s 80th anniversary:

“Historically, the best forges of Russia and Europe have been, and remain, in the Urals. That is where our joint projects were forged, creating an exceptional product from an alloy of the Urals’ riches, innovative metallurgical technologies and comprehensive multidisciplinary design: a product with a Ural soul that gives solidity to our shared successful solutions and strength and resilience to our business cooperation today and in the future. I sincerely wish the TsNIIChermet team and its veterans good health, stability and optimism. By its centenary, may the enterprise add many glorious pages to its record, with victories and achievements at the intersection of science and practice, including the exploration of the cosmic expanses of our Universe.”

In conclusion, Sergey Yuryevich Kulakov presented a gift with a Ural soul, forged by Ural craftspeople: “an apple symbolising the unity of two halves, TsNIIChermet and Uralgipromez. Our strength lies in the unity of lofty goals and joint work! As long as we are united, we are invincible!”
