On Tuesday, 24 June 2025, EUROMETAL convened a virtual National Federations Meeting with representatives from 13 national steel distribution and processing federations across Europe. The meeting, chaired by EUROMETAL President Alexander Julius, focused on reinforcing coordination and joint responses to the pressing challenges facing the European steel value chain.
A key item on the agenda was the EUROMETAL Call to Action on Steel Derivatives, which seeks to identify imports of ready-made steel products that bypass current EU safeguard measures and CBAM obligations. Participants exchanged updates on national-level engagement and shared approaches for collecting market evidence to support future policy action.
The group also discussed a proposal to organize a face-to-face National Federations Meeting later this year, aimed at deepening strategic collaboration across EUROMETAL’s membership base.
EUROMETAL thanks all 13 national federations for their participation and continued commitment to advancing a strong and united European steel distribution and processing sector.
