5 sustainable materials from metal scrap that can be used for object.
A low-carbon recycled aluminium range using a high proportion of post-consumer aluminium scrap.
Aluminium that uses at least 75% post-consumer scrap (for CIRCAL 75R). Recycled content differs by grade.
Low-carbon stainless steel made from 100% low-carbon raw materials such as recycled steel scrap. Carbon footprint down to 0.5 kg CO2e per kg — up to 93% below the global industry average of 7 kg (company average 1.6 kg). Batch-specific product carbon footprint certificates verified by TÜV SÜD in line with ISO 14067. Launched May 2022; 16 products as cold/hot rolled coil; adopted by 30+ companies across Europe and Asia.
The stainless counterpart to SSAB Zero (carbon steel). A rare metal product with batch-specific measured carb…
Architectural rolled copper made in Finland. The EPD (EPD Hub HUB-0258) states the raw material is "100% scrap copper" and declares GWP A1-A3 of 0.332 kg CO2e/kg (issued Jan 2023, valid to Jan 2028). Sheets and coils 0.3–4.0 mm in seven surfaces (Standard, Brown, Brass, Bronze, Royal, Green, Blue) for roofs, facades and cladding.
Copper fills a previously empty metal axis in the archive. A third-party EPD pins both feedstock (100% scrap)…
Recycled aluminium sheet from one of the world's largest aluminium rollers and recyclers. Average recycled content 63% in FY2025 (75% target by 2030), 84 billion used beverage cans recycled a year. Emissions intensity 3.6 t CO2e/t FRP (below 3 by 2030; −10% intensity achieved). EPDs published for architectural products. Supplied into beverage cans, automotive, aerospace and building sheet.
Broadens the aluminium axis beyond Hydro CIRCAL into rolling and the can-to-can loop. The sheer scale of cans…
Swedish steel melted from recycled scrap with fossil-free electricity and biogas. Third-party-verified EPDs put cradle-to-gate A1-A3 at 0.57 kg CO2e/kg and SSAB's own operations (scope 1-2) below 0.05 kg CO2e/kg. Available as hot- and cold-rolled, metal- and colour-coated sheet, tubes and sections.
At a time when "zero-carbon steel" is loosely used, this is a rare case where the maker itself separates own-…
