How Ready Are We for Green Steel?
20 juni 2021
The steel industry is without a doubt one of the highest CO2-emitting industries and its effects on the environment raise concerns. High-strength and “green” steel can offer both environmental and financial benefits for manufacturers that contribute to sustainable development. But how ready are we to commit to it?

Welding in arctic conditions
Today, Arctic areas are attracting much attention due to the large oil and natural gas deposits located there. As much as 13% of the Earth's unexploited oil reserves and 30% of natural gas reserves may be located in Arctic areas. The energy industry's largest projects to build gas and oil distribution networks are essentially based on steel construction and welding technology.
