Slovenia's dominant steel producer, the SIJ Group, reported a 5.2% year-on-year decline in crude steel production for 2025, with total output heavily restricted by an economic cooling in its core export destination, Germany. Operating with a combined annual steelmaking capacity of 726,000 mt—comprising 636,000 mt at SIJ Acroni and 90,000 mt at SIJ Metal Ravne—the group's downstream rolling capacity remained limited to 370,000-400,000 mt per year. Despite booking total revenues of €1 billion, matching the previous year's levels, the group’s financial performance deteriorated significantly, with EBITDA shrinking to €51 million (down from €73.3 million in 2023) and net losses widening to €15.4 million.
