With customers in over 40 countries and a flat stainless and electrical steel capacity of 2.5 mt in Brazil and Europe , Aperam is an undisputable global leader in stainless , electrical , and specialty steels . It is also at the forefront of the circular economy , creating the durable , versatile , and endlessly recyclable products we need to build a sustainable society .
Following its recent acquisition of ELG , a world leader in the recycling of stainless steel , more and more of these products are produced using very high levels of scrap – up to 90 % in some cases . Aperam is also unique in that it produces charcoal from its own FSC ® - certified forestry in Brazil , which is then used in the steel-making process as a natural and renewable substitute for fossil fuels .
While efforts like these place Aperam ’ s
CO 2 footprint as one of the best in its sector , the company is well-aware of the fact that it ’ s simply not enough to focus only on its own sustainability . That ’ s why , as a member of ResponsibleSteel™ , the industry ’ s first global , multi-stakeholder certification program , Aperam is working to establish sustainable standards for the entire industry .
With a sustainability performance that consistently receives top ratings from external analysts , Aperam ’ s customers already benefit from being able to select from some of the industry ’ s most environmentally-friendly products . It also offers customers a number of tools and resources to help them make sustainably smart purchasing decisions .
In addition to producing stainless steel , Aperam also provides the solutions helping shape a brighter future . For example , its tailormade products for the renewable energy sector help accelerate the energy transition , while the company ’ s expertise in batteries is driving the e-mobility sector . Aperam also supports the growing field of energy storage through its hydrogen-related products .
It ’ s all part of being a world-leading stainless steel company with sustainability at its heart .
