The new electric arc furnace has now been lifted into place at our steel mill in Oxelösund, Sweden. 🏗️

Lifting the 135‑ton giant, roughly the weight of 10 buses, was a precision move that marks another step in SSAB’s transformation.

Once the EAF facility is up and running, two furnaces will operate in a rotating system: one in production while the other is being refurbished. This means we can swap the entire furnace — both the lower and upper shell — in one go, keeping downtime to a minimum and efficiency at a maximum.

What can you 3D print with high-strength steel powder? ⚙️

Join Ophelia Thiger as Jesper Vang showcases a few examples at our steel powder facility in Oxelösund, Sweden.

Spoiler alert: By replacing aluminium with SSAB AM steel powder and using 3D printing, a race car part became lighter and stronger than the original aluminium component.

Steel produced at our Raahe mill in Finland plays a key role in the construction of the world’s largest cruise ships. 🛳️

We have a long-standing collaboration with Meyer Turku which is currently building massive Icon-class cruise ships for Royal Caribbean. The third vessel in the series, Legend of the Seas, has now been completed and will begin sailing in the Mediterranean.

The fourth and fifth vessels are currently under construction at the shipyard in Turku, Finland, and both standard and high-strength shipbuilding steels are being delivered there from Raahe. These deliveries include several strength grades used in applications such as hull blocks and deck structures.

“Building a large cruise ship requires a significant amount of steel. Steel forms the structural backbone of the vessel, and material properties such as strength and uniformity are critical for safety and performance,” says Ossi Kangas, Product Manager for Plate and Strip Products at SSAB Europe.

Did you know that a single steel slab weighs approximately 30 tons?

This weight is equal to two buses — with passengers on board. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑🚌

How does it look inside the electric arc furnace, being built at our site in Oxelösund, Sweden? 🏭

Join Ophelia Thiger as Magnus Sannert gives a demonstration.

The EAF is designed to melt both steel scrap and fossil-free sponge iron. It will be filled with molten steel, which will be tapped through tap holes — 190 tonnes every 45 minutes!

Through this conversion, we can phase out today’s blast furnace technology in Oxelösund and reduce Sweden’s carbon dioxide emissions by around 3%. 🌱

Did you know that SSAB Raahe welcomes around 70 trucks every day — adding up to roughly 25,000 trucks each year? Its on site port is just as busy, receiving about 500 ships annually. 🚢🚚

The Raahe site is a vast industrial area with multiple facilities, including its own port and one of the largest laboratory complexes in Finland.

High-strength steel has almost an infinite amount of uses — one of them being springs. 🌀

InfiniSpring isolates sound and vibrations and protects structures from shock, like any ordinary spring. But that’s where the similarities end.

For a very long time the conventional solutions looked the same: elastomers (rubber-like solids with elastic properties), coil springs and rubber pads suffering from poor performance and low durability.

InfiniSpring is manufactured from a single sheet of high-strength steel using laser cutting only. The cut-out design results in high flexibility together with high static load carrying capacity in all directions. This way shock protection, vibration and sound isolation is built into the steel structure itself. 🔩

The spring has a wide range of uses, protecting rotational and vibratory machines as well as sensitive equipment. Its thin construction requires little space and allows installation in any mounting, spring size or load, with load capacity increasing as plate thickness increases.

The solution has been patented, tested, and validated for performance and durability. It saves material, time and money, revolutionizing the spring industry.

We’re happy to announce that SSAB has decided to invest SEK 3.3 billion in a new quenching line in Oxelösund, Sweden. 🌟

The new quenching and tempering (Q&T) line will be essential for our ability to grow in advanced wear steels and protection steels, such as Hardox® 500 Tuf and Armox®. The production start is planned for 2030.

“The demand for protection steel is growing globally, and SSAB’s unique offerings give us a leadership position with customers in the defense industry. In addition, growth continues to be strong for other advanced steels, including wear steels. This new quenching line will initially add around 100 thousand tonnes in capacity enabling us to serve the most advanced customer needs,” says Per Elfgren, Head of SSAB Special Steels.

Congratulations AQS Æge — the world’s first ship made with SSAB Zero™ steel! ⚓

Last week, our subsidiary Tibnor had the honor of participating in the christening of the vessel in Bergen, Norway. The 30-meter, electric-powered supply ship was built by Salthammer Båtbyggeri and commissioned by AQS AS.

Tibnor delivered the SSAB Zero™ steel, produced from recycled scrap using fossil-free electricity and biogas, resulting in up to 70% lower fossil CO₂ emissions than conventional steel.

New Volvo EX60 is the first car in the world to use our SSAB Zero™ steel in serial production. 🚘

The steel is produced from recycled scrap using fossil-free electricity and biogas, resulting in up to 70% lower fossil CO₂ emissions than conventional steel — without compromising strength, safety, or quality.

Going electric isn’t enough to reduce the carbon footprint of cars. That’s why Volvo Cars’ EX60 contains SSAB Zero™ steel.
