Outokumpu is partnering with Alfa Laval and SSAB to deliver innovative plate heat exchangers to the Laakso Joint Hospital project

SSAB and Fortum will launch a FEED study to explore the possibilities of making hydrogen-reduced sponge iron also in Raahe.

SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall have recently produced the world’s first hydrogen-reduced sponge iron at a pilot scale. The technological breakthrough in the HYBRIT initiative eliminates around 90% of emissions in conjunction with steelmaking.

ABB has secured an order for the modernization of roller table drives and motors integrated with the existing ABB Ability™ System 800xA distributed control system.

SSAB, LKAB, and Vattenfall are taking a decisive step toward fossil-free steelmaking with the start-up of HYBRIT’s globally unique pilot plant for the production of fossil-free sponge iron.

SSAB, LKAB, and Vattenfall are taking the next important step to be the first in the world with a value chain for fossil-free steel.

A new research project named Swedish Metal is being launched by Sandvik, SSAB and the University of Skövde. Artificial Intelligence, Big Data and machine learning will allow unique and comprehensive production data analyses to be made. These analyses will hopefully show new cause-and-effect relationships – which can lead to more efficient and sustainable steelmaking processes.

SSAB’s subsidiary Tibnor has agreed to acquire the steel distribution business of the Danish company Sanistål A/S, Denmark’s second largest steel distributor.

SSAB Europe will invest SEK 300M over a two year period to improve efficiency of its tube production. In the same context, the tube business will be centralized to secure long-term competitiveness.

Johnny Sjöström has been appointed the new head of SSAB Special Steels. He will join SSAB from Uddeholm, where he has been CEO since 2014.
