Yenakiieve Iron and Steel Works, Public Joint Stock Company (PJSC) (Ukrainian: Єнакієвський металургійний завод; Russian: Енакиевский металлургический завод; EMZ) is an integrated steelmaking enterprise comprising OJSC Yenakiieve Iron and Steel Works and JV Metalen LLC. Yenakiieve Iron and Steel Works (Yenakiieve Steel) is a major employer of the city Yenakiieve in Donetsk Oblast of Ukraine. The works is located in the vicinity of the railway station Yenakiieve and is 60 km from Donetsk.
A trade blockade by Ukrainian activists during the War in Donbas has all but halted production since February 2017. On 1 March 2017 the separatist Donetsk People's Republic “nationalized” (along with all Ukrainian enterprises located in territory it controlled) the company. The Commercial Court of Donetsk Oblast declared the enterprise bankrupt in July 2019. Since June 2021, the UGMK group (Southern Mining and Metallurgical Complex) has taken over the management of the metallurgical enterprise EMK. In 2024, after a major overhaul, blast furnace No. 5 was reopened and put into operation. It will be able to smelt more than 1 million tons of iron per year.
