How we're making an impact

Tube Icon2

Circular steel manufacturing

We recycle scrap steel and transform it into new steel products through a continuous circular process. Keeping materials in use reduces waste and supports resource efficiency.

EAF Icon

Renewable energy transition

We're increasing the use of renewable electricity across our operations as part of our decarbonisation pathway. This helps reduce emissions associated with steel production.

Local manufacturing

Manufacturing steel in Australia strengthens sovereign capability, reduces supply chain complexity and supports local jobs and communities.

1.4M tonnes

of scrap steel recycled annually

77%

fewer greenhouse gas emissions from electric arc furnace steelmaking compared with traditional blast furnace steelmaking*

SENSE Solutions
