Hydnum Steel, a pioneer in green steel production on the Iberian Peninsula, has entered into a strategic partnership with European steel processing and distribution company Knauf Interfer. The collaboration aims to accelerate the adoption of sustainable steel solutions across Europe.
Under the terms of the agreement, Knauf Interfer will purchase green steel from Hydnum Steel for an estimated value of €80 million annually. This partnership will leverage Knauf Interfer’s extensive distribution network, including a trimodal hub in Duisburg, Germany, to efficiently deliver green steel to customers in Central Europe.
Beyond steel supply, the two companies plan to explore opportunities for value-added services, such as cutting, segmentation, and re-coiling. Knauf Interfer’s commitment to transparency will ensure that customers have access to clear information about the carbon footprint of Hydnum Steel’s products.
To further strengthen their sustainability efforts, Hydnum Steel and Knauf Interfer will collaborate on a circular economy initiative. This involves recycling ferrous scrap generated by Knauf Interfer’s operations at Hydnum Steel’s Puertollano plant, creating a closed-loop system that minimizes waste and maximizes resource efficiency.
This partnership marks a significant step forward in the transition to a more sustainable steel industry. By combining Hydnum Steel’s innovative green steel production with Knauf Interfer’s distribution expertise, the two companies are poised to drive the adoption of low-carbon steel solutions across Europe.
