Sustainability Report 2022

Sustainability Report 2022

Today, Aperam announces the publication of its sustainability performance report for 2022 called ‘made for life’. Aperam is already recognized as an industry leader in sustainability, in particular with the stainless steel sector’s first ResponsibleSteel™ certification earned in 2021 in Europe followed by Brazil in 2023 post 2022 on-site audits. The ResponsibleSteel certification covers all the dimensions of Social, Environmental and Corporate responsibility including Stakeholder Engagement.

We are also very proud of our industry leading CO2e (Scope 1+2) footprint, standing at 0.32 tCO2e/tcs (scopes 1+2) in 2022, well below the sector’s average. The good performance is based on charcoal usage in our Brazilian blast furnaces, the high rate of scrap used in our European electric arc furnaces, and the offsetting impact of our ‘carbon sink’ forestry.

But our ambition is greater: on the Greenhouse Gas emissions’ side, we aim to contribute to global carbon neutrality by 2050, both through our strong de-fossilisation roadmap and through the support provided by the new Aperam Recycling sub-segment to its customers, with quality low carbon secondary materials. On broader environmental aspects, we will also tackle the challenges of water autonomy, waste and air emission reduction and biodiversity preservation.

“As a matter of fact, our social, environmental and societal responsibilities will never be pushed into the background. Aperam will always navigate the future with these three pillars as our compass, our strength and our pride.” Timoteo Di Maulo, CEO of Aperam, commented.
