Welcome to our SSAB Newsroom

SSAB has once again paused work at the construction site for its new steel mill in Luleå after personal gas detectors registered low levels of hydrogen cyanide. The detected levels have not exceeded applicable occupational exposure limits and are not considered to pose any risk to personnel on site. No work will resume until the situation has been investigated and deemed safe.

SSAB Americas, The Greenbrier Companies and Alter Trading are partnering on a circular economy project that demonstrates how recycled materials can be used to produce near-zero emissions steel and returned to the supply chain for new steel making. The effort begins at SSAB’s Iowa operations where SSAB’s near-zero emissions steel, SSAB Zero™, is produced from recycled metals and fossil-free energy.

SSAB brings Armox® 500 AM Powder to the Eurosatory Defense and Security tradeshow on June 14–19, 2026 — demonstrating how Armox® 500 AM Powder and 3D printing can create protection where armor plates are not optimal.

The long-term safety cooperation between ESL Shipping and the port of SSAB’s Raahe site is visible in everyday operations through open dialogue, joint exercises, and continuous development of working practices. Close collaboration helps anticipate risks and strengthens safety in demanding operating environments.

Steel produced at SSAB’s Raahe mill plays a key role in the construction of the world’s largest cruise ships. The Raahe site has a long-standing collaboration with the Meyer Turku shipyard—resulting in solutions that combine high quality, delivery reliability and efficient logistics.
