SSAB
and DS Stålprofil begin a fossil-free steel partnership with deliveries
starting in 2026.
Steel profile manufacturer DS Stålprofil and steelmaker SSAB
have announced a partnership for deliveries of fossil-free steel gradually
starting in 2026. Denmark-based DS Stålprofil plans to use the fossil-free
steel in its roof cladding and facade products.
Jan Meier, Sales Director in SSAB Europe, said:
The partnership will further
strengthen DS Stålprofil’s position as a provider of sustainable, long service
life, low-maintenance building solutions and brings SSAB closer to its aim to
help create a fossil-free value chain.
“We are extremely happy to have DS Stålprofil as a partner for
fossil-free steel products from SSA.
“Together we will support and enable the construction industry
to meet the future demanding targets for C02 reductions in new buildings.
Building sustainably — not only in use phase but also from the materials used
for the building — is becoming more and more important. And with SSAB Fossil-free™
steel we can really make a difference for this industry.”
Thomas Rasmussen, CEO of DS Stålprofil, said:
In the shift towards a new,
low-carbon economy, our steel products will be a key contributor for
contractors, architects, and builders to meet their climate goals.
“The unique, fossil-free steel has a long service life and is
100% recyclable. We are looking forward to an even stronger partnership with
SSAB and to offer our clients the same high-quality steel cladding as always,
but now with an even stronger sustainable profile. This way, we are both
responsible and take part in creating a more sustainable future.”
DS Stålprofil is Cradle to Cradle Certified®, which is a sustainability guiding
principle for future company activities.
