ArcelorMittal will supply German distribution group Knauf Interfer with CO2-reduced input material, Kallanish learns from the steelmaker.
At ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products, CO2 savings are achieved with the “XCarb recycled and renewably produced” label and also through the sale of “XCarb Green Steel Certificates” in line with customer requirements, the steelmaker says.
In partnership with ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products, Knauf Interfer will soon be using the “XCarb recycled and renewably produced” product in series production for several customer projects.
Knauf Interfer, in turn, can pass these CO2 savings on to its customers. In this way, the two partners want to safeguard the supply chain. Knauf is thus forming a central interface between steel manufacturers and customers, both through its steel service centres and through its own forming blanks and cold rolling activities, ArcelorMittal explains.
Knauf Interfer processes the steel into slit strip, sheets, formed blanks or cold-rolled precision steel for applications in segments such as drives, engines or seats.
