SSAB has entered into an agreement with the Swedish steel distributor Stena Stål under which Stena Stål will be the first external distributor to deliver fossil-free steel on the Swedish market, starting in 2026.
The Nordic steel market is diverse and a lot of business goes through distributors to small and medium-sized companies. Now, that Stena Stål has signed a letter of intent with SSAB, another link in the value chain has been added to the future fossil-free steel market.
"I am happy to welcome Stena Stål as a fossil-free steel partner. Together, we are contributing to reduced carbon dioxide emissions when we introduce fossil-free steel to the Swedish market," says
"For us at Stena Stål, fossil-free steel is central to our journey towards sustainable steel distribution. This is very important for our customers and we aim to reduce our CO2 footprint by 50% already by 2030 and by 100% in 2045. We are very happy about this partnership as we take important steps towards a fossil-free future," says Stefan Svensson, MD at Stena Stål AB.
SSAB plans to revolutionize the entire steelmaking process, aiming to deliver fossil-free steel to the market at a commercial scale during 2026 and to largely eliminate carbon dioxide emissions from our own operations in around 2030. SSAB works with iron ore producer
