Written by Sandy Williams
U.S. Steel introduced a new sustainable product line, verdeX, at the Ceres Conference 2021 last week. The advanced high-strength steel can be produced with only one-fourth of the carbon dioxide emissions previously required, the company claims.
“We know that the urgency of the climate crisis requires more from all of us,” said U S. Steel President and CEO David B. Burritt in a video message. “So, we’re changing our portfolio of steelmaking technologies. Creating something new, steels that are best for our customers and best for our planet. Together we can build a sustainable future.”
