Galvano Metaal adds ArcelorMittal's lower-carbon steel to product range

Dutch metal distributor Galvano Metaal has added ArcelorMittal's XCarb recycled and renewably produced steel to its hot-rolled pickled sheet offering, expanding its range of lower-carbon steel products.

The XCarb steel is produced using recycled steel and renewable electricity, providing manufacturers with an option to reduce the carbon footprint of their products while maintaining steel's performance and functionality.

Galvano Metaal said the move reflects growing customer interest in lower-carbon materials as sustainability becomes an increasingly important consideration in manufacturing and supply chains.

ArcelorMittal said demand for steel with a physically lower CO2 footprint is increasing across a range of market segments. The companies added that lower-carbon steel can help manufacturers and end users reduce Scope 3 emissions and the embodied carbon of finished products.

Galvano Metaal said it will combine its market knowledge and customer relationships with ArcelorMittal's technical expertise to support manufacturers seeking lower-carbon material options.

ArcelorMittal is one of the world's largest steel and mining companies, operating primary steelmaking facilities in 14 countries. In 2025, the company produced 55.6 mln tons of crude steel and 48.8 mln tons of iron ore.
