    SSAB Americas and partners debut circular steel project

    Written by Ethan Bernard

    SSAB Americas, the Greenbrier Companies, and Alter Trading have partnered on a project where recycled materials can be used to make near-zero emissions steel and then returned to the supply chain.

    The project starts at SSAB’s Montpelier, Iowa, operations, where SSAB’s near-zero emissions steel—SSAB Zero—is produced from recycled metals and fossil-free energy.
