PART 1

HYBRIT technology, this is how it affects you as a customer

Together with partners and customers, SSAB aims to create a fossil-free value chain, from the mine to the end product. HYBRIT is a new, revolutionary steelmaking technology. With the help of HYBRIT technology, SSAB will be the first steel company in the world to supply fossil-free steel to the market as early as 2026.

The webinar will, among other things, answer the following questions:

  • What is Hybrit and the Hybrit concept?
  • How will fossil-free steel affect the quality and performance of steel?
  • How can companies benefit from using fossil-free steel?
  • What can companies that use steel do today to reduce the CO2 footprint of their products?
PART 2

EPD – An important tool in sustainability work

EPD stands for Environmental Product Declaration and is a third-party peer-reviewed document that provides transparent and comparable information on products' environmental impact in a life cycle perspective. All emissions are reported up until the product is ready to be delivered. This makes it easy for you as a customer to get a total emission value for each product you make.

The webinar will, among other things, answer the following questions:

  • What are EPDs and what are they used for?
  • What do EPDs from SSAB contain?
  • Where do you turn if you want to take part in SSAB's EPDs?
  • Why is SSAB already today classified as one of the steel producers with the lowest environmental impact in international comparisons?
