Green Steel and ESG Goals: A Sustainable Shift

As sustainability takes center stage, manufacturers are rapidly transitioning to low-carbon flat steel. Green steel initiatives are reshaping the landscape, with companies like SSAB pioneering fossil-free steel using hydrogen and scrap-based technologies.

In June 2024, SSAB partnered with Firth Steels to supply low-carbon flat steel for buildings. Moreover, it secured SEK 1.45 billion from the EU Just Transition Fund to upgrade its production in Sweden.

This shift not only addresses environmental concerns but also supports the growing preference for recyclable materials such as stainless steel, metal plate, and flat iron in modern construction and equipment manufacturing.
