Tata partners with Czech service centre for decarbonisation
Tata Steel Nederland says it has signed a memorandum of understanding on decarbonisation with Czech steel service centre Steel Center Europe.
Steel Center Europe is a coil processing service centre equally owned by Japan’s Sumitomo Corporation and Spain’s Bamesa. It was established in 2004 by Sumitomo and Toyota Tsusho. Bamesa became co-owner in 2020.
The steelmaker announced the partnership on its LinkedIn account but did not specify what it entails. The note refers to Zeremis, Tata Europe’s emissions-reduced steel brand, which suggests the partnership is about Tata supplying Zeremis to the Czech firm, Kallanish notes.
“To support the green journey of all European mills, a separate department has been established within the Sumitomo Group, demonstrating their strong commitment to sustainability,” the note adds.
