BEB Stahl expands product range with low-emission heavy plates

BEB Stahlhandel GmbH & Co. KG offers a comprehensive range of steel plates, flat products, slabs, continuous cast slabs and semi-finished products in standard commercial dimensions. Thanks to the company's many years of experience in steel processing, individual dimensions are also available at any time upon customer request. In addition to the highest quality, flexibility and adherence to delivery dates, the renowned straightening company also intends to expand its product range to include low-emission SALCOS® Heavy Plates in the future. "We are delighted that we will soon be able to use CO₂-reduced quality plates from Ilsenburg and thus meet the growing demands of our customers," says Christian Nadrowski (CEO of BEB Stahl), welcoming the recently signed MOU (Memorandum of Understanding).  

BEB Stahl hence expands the circle of interested parties for CO2-reduced heavy plates. " We have a long partnership with BEB Stahl, and now we want to move towards a low-emission future together," says Tony Dachner (Sales Manager DACH at ILG), pleased with the steel trader's forward-looking step. One of many initiatives on the way to a sustainable industry, because the decarbonization of the steel industry can only succeed in a joint effort.

With its SALCOS® program, Salzgitter AG is well on the way to a sustainable decarbonization of steel production. Using direct reduction plants, hydrogen will gradually replace the carbon previously required for steel production, reducing CO₂ emissions by around 95% by 2033. Ilsenburger Grobblech can already be supplied with low-emission steel from the Group's own plant in Peine. The slabs are produced in the electric arc furnace using scrap metal. These heavy plates have a global warming potential (GWP) of 590.9 kg CO₂ equivalent per ton and thus already save 75% of CO₂ emissions compared to conventional production.
