A sustainable life

From tractor to forklift truck, from radiator to washing machine: Our steel can be found in the most diverse products. The world's leading steel processors and machine manufacturers use steel that we develop especially for them. Because of its specific material properties, our steel is used in heavy agricultural, forestry and horticultural machines, but also in trucks, trailers, storage tanks and household appliances. 

In these industries, steel contributes to a more sustainable use of machinery. Ultra-strong steel helps manufacturers reduce the weight of machines such as cranes and excavators, which saves material. Extra wear-resistant steel in the containers of tippers and refuse collection vehicles ensures that they last much longer. And thanks to steel developed for laser processing, we can automate the production of increasingly complex parts. 

Steel also contributes to making our living environment more sustainable. Consider, for example, supporting structures for solar panels for which steel is used, or the steel tubes and rails of the sustainable transport of the future, the Hyperloop
