Swedish output declines, SSAB to replace key bridge

Swedish mills produced 331,000 tonnes of crude steel in November 2025, down by 3.2% year-on-year, the country’s steel federation Jernkontoret tells Kallanish. 

November’s y-o-y drop was deeper than the year-to-date figure. From January through November, a total of 3,640,000t of crude steel was produced in Sweden, 1.4% less than in the corresponding 2024 period.

The production statistics compiled by Jernkontoret are based on data from eleven crude steel plants in Sweden.

Meanwhile, the federation has also disclosed plans by SSAB to replace the old Mjälga Bridge over the Dalälven River in Borlänge.

The existing bridge, which is central to the transport of steel within SSAB’s industrial area, has reached the end of its technical life. It will be replaced by two new bridges – a railway bridge and a road bridge with a pedestrian and cycle path. The project will start in 2027 and last for two-three years.
