- Global challenges driven by restricted exports to Western markets, a slowdown in economic growth of the sector, disrupted supply chains, and a highly volatile national currency
- Difficulties with exports, supply chain disruption, growing competition on local markets, global economic slowdown, falling steel prices, and rouble volatility
- Sub-optimal capacity utilisation and inadequate access to imports of environmentally friendly equipment and technologies
