With a strong local production base and robust market positions – #1 in Europe and #2 in North America – the foundation of our business is sustainable stainless steel. Combining unmatched cost competitiveness and sustainability leadership, we drive maximum value of this business. The strong foundation in stainless steel also provides the financial strength to pursue growth in other areas.
Advanced materials and alloys
We accelerate growth by expanding into high-margin, high-value grades and differentiate through customer collaboration, building on our strong legacy in specialty grades. This business plays a central role in reducing cyclicality and driving profitable growth by investing in customer-driven innovation and actively moving away from commodity products.
Technologies revolutionizing value creation
As part of our transformation, we maximize value from ferrochrome by repositioning from an internal supplier to an unrestricted market player. Relying on our pioneering technology, we aim to produce low-CO₂ metals, first focusing on chromium materials such as enriched ferrochrome and high-purity chromium metal. Eventually, this technology can extend to other strategic metals within the stainless steel value chain – and potentially beyond.
