Steel is the most versatile industrial material in the world. The thousands of different grades and types of steel developed by the industry make the modern world possible.
Steel is 100% recyclable and therefore is a fundamental part of the circular economy.
As a fundamental engineering material, steel is also an essential factor in the development and deployment of innovative, CO2-mitigating technologies, improving resource efficiency and fostering sustainable development in Europe.
Industry welcomes the European Commission’s work on the development of a regulatory framework for CO₂ transport infrastructure, which will be critical to achieving the EU’s climate objectives and enabling the scale-up of Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) as part of an integrated value chain, including emitters, transport, storage operators, and CO2 offtakes for use in products.
Brussels, 19 May 2026: Europe’s steel industry has welcomed today’s approval by the European Parliament of the new EU steel trade measure, calling it an important step towards addressing the growing pressures facing the sector from record imports, global overcapacity and rising international protectionism.
Brussels, 6 May 2026 - Europe’s steel industry has warned that the EU’s proposed Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA) risks undermining its industrial and climate ambitions, unless it ensures that demand for low-carbon steel prioritises production within the EU.
