From November 11 to 14, 2025, the highly anticipated 31st Russia International Metallurgy, Foundry and Steel Exhibition (METAL-EXPO’2025) was grandly held at Expocentre Fairgrounds in St. Petersburg. Shanghai Bozhong Metal Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Bozhong Metal") made a heavyweight appearance with its core products and technical team. A professional delegation consisting of Sales Managers Annie Wang, Molly Xu, and Technical Director Miss Wei participated in this international metal industry event covering 22 thematic areas.
As the largest and most authoritative metallurgical and steel industry exhibition in Russia, this year's expo attracted over 780 exhibitors from 35 countries and regions, covering an exhibition area of 50,000 square meters and welcoming more than 40,000 professional visitors. It received strong support from authoritative institutions such as the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation and the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI). Global metallurgical giants including Russia's MMK, NLMK, China Anshan Iron and Steel Group, and Germany's SMS Group all made their appearances. During the expo, more than 20 professional activities such as the Hydrogen Metallurgy Summit and International Procurement Matching Conference were held, making it a core platform for insight into Eurasian market dynamics and technological trends.
For this participation, Bozhong Metal focused on showcasing its core competitive product portfolio, including nickel-based alloys, imported super stainless steel, Hastelloy, high-strength structural steel plates, weather and corrosion-resistant steel plates, and other special metal materials. These products are widely used in key fields such as oil and gas refining, nuclear power, and construction machinery. With excellent low-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, the products precisely meet the urgent demand for special steel in Russia's Arctic development and large-scale infrastructure projects, highly aligning with the expo's core theme of "Technological Breakthrough and Market Restructuring".
During the expo, the delegation collaborated efficiently with clear divisions of labor: Sales Managers Annie Wang and Molly Xu, leveraging their rich international market experience, conducted intensive business negotiations with purchasers and distributors from Russia, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), and European regions. They focused on promoting customized metal material solutions adapted to Russian GOST standards and reached multiple cooperation intentions. Technical Director Miss Wei deeply participated in technical seminars, conducting professional exchanges with global industry experts on topics such as the application innovation of special alloy materials and the development of green metallurgy technology, demonstrating Bozhong Metal's profound accumulation in technological R&D.
"Currently, Russia's metallurgical industry is ushering in dual opportunities of policy dividends and market restructuring. Crude steel exports are continuously recovering, and the demand for high-quality special metal materials is growing rapidly," said Technical Director Miss Wei. "Through this expo, we not only accurately connected with core customer resources in the Eurasian market but also gained in-depth understanding of regional industry standards and technological trends, laying a solid foundation for the group's further expansion of international business." Sales Manager Annie Wang added that relying on the cross-border cooperation platform built by the expo, Bozhong Metal will focus on promoting supply chain collaboration with local Russian enterprises, contributing to the high-quality development of China-Russia metallurgical trade.
Founded in 2006 with a registered capital of 31 million RMB, Shanghai Bozhong Metal Group is a leading supplier of special metal materials in China, equipped with a complete import and export business system and customized service capabilities. The debut at the St. Petersburg Metallurgy Expo is an important measure for the group to implement its "international layout" strategy. In the future, Bozhong Metal will continue to focus on the needs of the Eurasian market, empowering the upgrading of the global metallurgical industry chain with high-quality products and technical services.
