INDEPENDENT STEEL SUPPLIER
Steel is essentially a sustainable material with a very long life span. It is the world’s most recycled material and fossil-free steel production imposes demands on further recycling. Climate change and environmental degradation are a threat to the continued stability and development of the EU and the world. The EU has set a target to become the world’s first climate-neutral region in 2050. To achieve this goal, the EU’s Green Deal framework has been launched. The framework includes a number of directives that will affect all people and businesses in Europe, directly or indirectly.
For BE Group, it is important to adapt its operations and offering to the regulations that are being implemented. This requires the company to have a strategy that is not only effective in the short term but also designed to hold in the medium to long term. The purchasing organization must be aware of the impact of the different options and salespeople must be able to provide customers with the information they need to make informed material choices, where price may not always be the most important factor.
Sustainable alternatives
Green steel is a sustainable alternative to traditional steel, made with processes that minimize carbon dioxide emissions. Traditional steel production is one of the largest sources of industrial carbon dioxide emissions, making green steel a critical innovation to achieve the global climate targets. BE Group is making considerable investments to secure materials and is able to offer green alternatives for all product areas.
