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.

Did you know that temperature of molten steel can be almost 1,700 degrees Celsius? 🔥

That is an extreme temperature far beyond everyday conditions. The molten steel is even hotter than lava, which typically ranges from about 700 to 1,200 °C.

There’s one single project that doesn’t go unnoticed by anyone in Sweden’s capital, Stockholm: the redevelopment of Slussen. 🏗️

Originally built in 1642 to bridge Södermalm and the Old Town, the new Slussen is no mere renovation — it’s a total transformation of a historic junction that serves a quarter of a million passengers every day. To call it one of Sweden’s most complex infrastructure projects is an understatement. It is a feat of precision and modern engineering.

A project of this magnitude requires a foundation that never yields. Deep beneath the surface lies 117,000 meters of SSAB steel piles — roughly 10,700 tonnes of high-strength steel providing the stability for this unique construction.

When fully completed in 2028, Slussen will be a modern hub for both people as well as waterways and all modes of transportation. From the depths of Stockholm’s bedrock to the skyline above, we’re proud to write a new chapter of urban infrastructure.

CEO Johnny Sjöström in SSAB’s report for Q1 2026:

“SSAB’s operating result for the first quarter of 2026 amounted to SEK 2,201 (1,351) million. The improvement was mainly related to higher results in SSAB Europe and SSAB Americas. The shipments of advanced steels were at a good level in the first quarter, and growth in these steels is a key in SSAB’s strategy to accelerate premium leadership.”

We’re thrilled that SSAB steel helped build Helsinki’s new Kruunuvuori Bridge — the longest and tallest bridge in Finland. 🏗️

The Kruunuvuori Bridge is approximately 1,200 metres long, and its central pylon rises to a height of 135 metres. But its most impressive feature isn’t its scale, it’s its purpose: Kruunuvuori Bridge is dedicated solely to pedestrians, cyclists and public transport. Zero private cars.

The bridge links the city centre to residential areas and includes around 3,000 tonnes of SSAB’s high strength steel in its structure, together with driven and drilled steel piles in the foundations.

Join us celebrating this landmark for sustainable mobility! 🎉

SSAB steel is used globally in applications designed to withstand the most demanding operating environments — one example being railcars. 🚈

When transporting heavy materials, railcars are exposed to constant abrasion and impact, leading to damage. Traditionally, this has been addressed by using thicker steel, resulting in heavier, less efficient designs.

The Greenbrier Companies took a different approach, developing a new generation of gondola railcars that are lighter, stronger, and more durable.

This was made possible through close collaboration with SSAB, using Strenx® performance steel for structural components and Hardox® wear plate in the most exposed areas.

Strenx® reduces each gondola’s unloaded weight by about 7 metric tons while maintaining high strength and resilience. Hardox® eliminates most of the welding that goes into the railcar: key points in the bottom of the gondola — the area that takes the greatest beating — are folded rather than welded.

The materials, together with Greenbrier’s innovative solution, enable a railcar with a longer lifespan, supporting more efficient rail transport.

How will we move steel scrap at SSAB Oxelösund? In high-performing containers made of our own steel. ⚙️

More than 2,000 containers will circulate once the electric arc furnace in Oxelösund, Sweden, is up and running, transporting scrap efficiently by rail and truck. Two sizes — 34 m³ and 47 m³ — ensure flexibility for varying bulk densities.

Designed by SSAB and produced by the Polish company Pol-Osteg, the containers are built mainly with Hardox® 450 wear plate, with selected units in Hardox® 500 Tuf and reinforced with Strenx® 700 MC Plus steel.

Production is now in full swing, with eight containers completed per day and monthly shipments to Oxelösund beginning in May.

To secure safe, weather-protected storage, containers will be stacked at the 28,000 m² Lotsåkern site, with smart features like drainage holes, rubber skirts, and protective lids to prevent water and ice from entering.

Did you know our site in Montpelier, Iowa, rents its land to two farmers?

The site sits on impressive 2,200 acres of land. Of it, 460 acres are used as farmland with the farmers maintaining the area, growing corn, soybeans and in some of the smaller areas, hay. 🌽🌾

Steel can take many forms, and SSAB steel is used in various demanding applications — such as excavator teeth. ⚙️

In Norway, the challenge of bucket wear led Jim Heldal to rethink how excavator teeth should work. Years of eroded teeth stopping the job pushed him to seek a better solution.

Inspired by Japanese woodworking, he explored whether steel parts could lock together through shape and friction, forming the first DigJim concept.

To make it real, Jim Heldal needed steel that could endure extreme wear with consistent accuracy, making SSAB the perfect choice. Hardox® 500 high-strength steel enables the DigJim system by providing durable wear parts.

The protection system can be welded onto new or existing buckets, strengthening critical areas and reducing wear. Its precise design allows teeth to be replaced in minutes without special tools, improving pe*******on, load capacity and overall efficiency.

With DigJim’s solution, when a part wears out, it can be swapped by hand in seconds, sending the excavator back to work almost immediately. 💯

Did you know that a single steel coil can weigh up to 25 tons?

A steel coil is a long, thin sheet of steel that’s rolled into a giant coil to make transportation, storage, and further processing easier.

To put this weight into perspective, one steel coil is approximately as heavy as two full size buses or 15 cars! 🚗
