Salzgitter Flachstahl, a subsidiary of Salzgitter AG, and Oldendorff Carriers have entered a long-term agreement to reduce emissions in the maritime transport of iron ore.
The collaboration is expected to cut around 19kt of CO₂ emissions, equivalent to removing 4,000 passenger cars from the road for a year.
“We are focusing not only on decarbonising the internal production route for steelmaking, but also on related process steps along the entire value chain. Logistics – particularly seaborne raw material transport – plays a central role in this context. We are therefore pleased to have Oldendorff, a long-standing partner, at our side as a strong companion on our transformation journey.” - Gunnar Groebler, Chairman of the executive board of Salzgitter
