Swedish specialty steel producer SSAB has announced that it has signed an agreement with Swedish steel distributor Stena Stål for the distribution of fossil-free steel in the Swedish market from 2026.
Accordingly, Stena Stål will be the first external distributor to deliver fossil-free steel in the Swedish market.
With the given agreement, another link in the value chain has been added to the future fossil-free steel market.
“I am happy to welcome Stena Stål as a fossil-free steel partner. Together, we are contributing to reduced carbon dioxide emissions when we introduce fossil-free steel to the Swedish market,” Matts Nilsson, head of sales Sweden & Norway at SSAB, said.
SSAB plans to largely eliminate carbon emissions from its operations in around 2030.
