Explore CO2-reduced steel, aluminum, and copper options.
Sustainable materials are vital in today's world. Our CO2-reduced steel, aluminum, and copper options allow you to contribute to environmental protection while maintaining quality and performance. Explore the advantages of our environmentally friendly materials to enhance sustainability in your upcoming projects.
Embark on your sustainable project and explore our CO2-reduced materials: steel, aluminum, and copper . To request materials or learn more about the three classes of our CO2-reduced materials, please contact us.
The product carbon footprint (PCF) of steel, aluminum, and copper materials depend on several key factors. These include energy sources, production intensity, recycled material utilization, transportation methods, and production process efficiency. Incorporating renewable energy and advanced recycling technologies can notably decrease carbon footprints. Additionally, the geographic location of production sites and logistics impacts the overall PCF of materials.
What is behind these categories? We explain our material classes for CO2-reduced materials
Our most advanced materials with a focus on the best possible CO2 reduction. The entire materials expertise of thyssenkrupp Materials Europe with the smallest possible CO2 footprint. Products in this class are characterised by the most advanced technology, such as the optimised direct reduction and electric arc process (DR-EAF) and the electric arc process (EAF), as well as high recycling efficiency.
Experience premium-quality materials from our Classic product line with trackable CO2 reduction. Benefit from a balanced price-to-sustainability ratio with our Partial-emissions optimized products. Our production methods include the optimized blast furnace process (BF-BOF), direct reduction with optional melting in an electric arc furnace (DR-EAF), and substitution of scrap for iron ore.
Our materials represent the highest quality and decades of experience. They are produced in established large-scale facilities, tailored precisely to meet customer specifications. Conventional production methods such as the oxygen blow moulding process are primarily used in primary steel production.
