Many industries and companies around the world are working on cutting their carbon emissions. Choosing the right steel is an important contributor.
SSAB is transforming the future of steel and aiming to create a fossil-free value chain. Join us on our journey by switching to steel with less climate impact.
First mover initiatives
The fossil-free steel produced now is a proof of concept using HYBRIT® technology. The revolutionary steelmaking technology using hydrogen reduced sponge iron, removes the primary source of CO2 emissions, with water as by-product, instead of CO2. Learn about some of our partners’ ambitions, plans and first products made with the first pilot deliveries of fossil-free steel.
