“We are extremely happy to welcome Meneta, a forerunner within automotive brake components and sealing materials, as a partner for fossil-free steel products,” said Jan Meier, SSAB Europe sales director. “Together, we will contribute to a fossil-free value chain for the automotive industry — and all the way to the end customer.”

Meneta expects to reduce its Scope III emissions by approximately 60,000 metric tons in the coming years when its global brake component and sealing and decoupling material productions fully incorporate SSAB’s fossil-fuel-free steel.
