Cologne, 21 May 2015 – The world’s largest steel producer has many stories to tell – from products to financial results through investments in facilities and employees to examples where ArcelorMittal steel contributes as the fabric of life. This includes the new European Central Bank building in Frankfurt and the Reichstag dome in Berlin. And there are many more stories to tell – for example, about the development of the former Eisenhüttenkombinat Ost (EKO) to today’s ArcelorMittal Eisenhüttenstadt. Or how Cologne’s football stadium received a new roof and why beams from Luxembourg have been the best solution. Not to mention the career paths and tips for women and what our apprentices have experienced during their field trip to the tropics.
ArcelorMittal Germany has launched a new blog to report about these stories and many more. It can be found at http://blog.germany.arcelormittal.com/en.
Therein the company provides the readers with a broad view behind its scenes. Employees from different sites are blogging in German and English language on different topics around steel. Various topics about employees, innovation, jobs and career as well as community engagement will have their place, from technical background knowledge about steel production through reports from daily working life to the introduction of social projects.
Another highlight: The CEOs of the sites have their own blog to report personally about the group’s success stories and challenges in Germany and Europe. “This blog shows that steel as an innovative material can also score in social web. Meanwhile, our employees get the chance to give their views. Finally, they are the most important part to make the company so unique as the world’s leading steel producer”, comments Frank Schulz, CEO of ArcelorMittal Germany. He has published the first CEO blog post himself. It deals with Germany’s and the European Union’s current energy and climate policy whose outcome will be a determining factor for the future and competitiveness of the steel industry. Schulz calls for a far-reaching reform of emission trading in order to achieve a sustainable reduction of CO2 emissions and to preserve the steel industry in Germany and Europe.
Wiederholt, a leading producer of precision steel tubes, and Europe's largest steel producer ArcelorMittal have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to use CO2-reduced steel in production.
ArcelorMittal Europe – Long Products has made the first delivery of XCarb® recycled and renewably produced beams to customer SPAETER Oberhausen in Germany. It marks an important step for both companies on their journey towards net zero. The two companies announced a low-carbon emissions supply partnership at the Wire Fair in Dusseldorf, in April 2024. #XCarb #steelbeams #SPAETERGruppe #SPAETER
Standing shoulder-to-shoulder towards carbon neutrality: ArcelorMittal Europe - Flat Products and Knauf Interfer are jointly driving forward the sustainability goals set and have an agreement for ArcelorMittal to supply Knauf Interfer with CO2-reduced steel, which saves more than two thirds of CO2 emissions in production. Knauf Interfer, in turn, can pass these CO2 savings on to its customers.
The European Space Agency recently launched the first Ariane 6 rocket into Earth orbit in front of the world’s cameras. ArcelorMittal Rails & Special Sections participated in this major project by producing exceptional quality overhead crane rails, allowing the building around the rocket to move to propel it into space. #cranerails #steelforscience #Ariane6 #space
Our latest, impressive record is two new super wide flange shapes up to 1488kg/m (1000 lbs/ft), in XCarb® recycled and renewably produced. This great achievement comes from ArcelorMittal’s Differdange plant, where it was made possible by a specific device installed at the end of the rolling line there – the Quenched and Self Tempering process (QST) – which allows the production of thick Jumbo sections in high strength steel.
