Steel is the backbone of modern industrial societies –
and a key component of the successful transition to a green economy

For more than 25 years, we have been producing our steel in the most sustainable way possible: in electric arc furnaces, from almost 100 percent scrap metal. We protect the climate by saving the equivalent of over one million metric tons of CO2 emissions every year, and by helping customers in a wide range of markets to significantly reduce their own carbon footprint – giving them a significant competitive advantage in tomorrow’s marketplace.

80 % lower
CO2 emissions

Thanks to our electric arc furnaces and the use of scrap metal as a raw material, our steel currently produces around 80 percent less CO2 than conventionally produced steel. And we are taking steps to reduce emissions even further in the future.

Climate-neutral by 2039

We are already the most sustainable steel company in Germany – and we have a clear roadmap for how we can become even more sustainable. With our unique expertise, state-of-the-art technology and passion for sustainability, we will reduce our emissions by a further 50 percent by 2030. And this is just the start: By investing in renewable energies and closed-loop manufacturing, as well as continuously searching for new, innovative ideas, we intend to become completely climate-neutral by 2039

Green electricity. Green carbon.
Green hydrogen.

Elektrolichtbogenofen

We have already started to steadily increase the proportion of green electricity we use, by generating it in-house and buying it from certified third parties. In addition, since 2023 we have gradually been replacing the coal used in our steel production process with biogenic carbon. These two measures will enable us to reduce our emissions from 0.4 to just 0.05 metric tons of CO2 per metric ton of crude steel. The use of green hydrogen offers further potential for the future.

The green steel in all our product lines is produced from almost 100 percent scrap metal in our electric furnaces.

In addition, our Green Power Steel is made using 100 percent renewable electricity.

Green Power Premium Steel also uses 100 percent biogenic carbon.

Scope 1: direct emissions from plant / production process
Scope 2: indirect emissions from purchased electricity
*CO2 emissions relate to volume of crude steel produced (continuously cast)
