Steel Demand Offers Green Opportunities

Scrap use cuts CO2 emissions and producers are increasingly looking for more sustainable operations than conventional steelmaking.

The recent COP26 gathering of more than 100 countries focused global attention on the climate crisis. While there has been criticism from the recycling community that conserving and recovering vital materials was largely overlooked, it is clear that global efforts to reduce carbon emissions present a significant opportunity to grow scrap’s share of the steel making sector beyond its current average of 30%.

Advantages of recovering these vital materials include both saving emissions and higher demand. Read more about both here.
