🚀 Sustainable Steel Production: Chromium-Free Passivation 🌱 Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH we’re proud to announce a significant leap forward in sustainable steel production! 🌍 As of this year, all our hot-dip galvanized steel, including StronSal® products, is treated with a completely chromium-free passivation. This achievement follows extensive research by Salzgitter Mannesmann Forschung, rigorous operating trials, and positive evaluations from our customers. 🔑 Key Advantages of Chromium-Free Passivation: ✔️ Free from heavy metals and nitrates, contributing to environmental protection. ✔️ Superior corrosion protection compared to the previous chromium (III)-containing passivation. ✔️ Maintains excellent tribological properties, paint adhesion, bonding suitability, and weldability. This advancement underscores our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and delivering top-quality solutions for our customers. 📄 Learn more in our Chromium-Free Passivation data sheet. 💬 For inquiries, our technical customer support team is here to assist! #Steel #Sustainability #Innovation #GalvanizedSteel #Flachstahl #SalzgitterMannesmannInternational #GreenerSteel

Salzgitter Mannesmann International GmbH, through its SALCOS® | Salzgitter AG program, has made history by delivering South Africa's first-ever green steel coil to MALBEN ENGINEERING LIMITED, a leading South African automotive component manufacturer. This milestone marks a significant opportunity to evaluate the mechanical and chemical performance of green steel, and to compare all the quality-related aspects - from formability to welding, and the identification of potential corrosion issues during transportation - with that of conventional ‘grey’ steel. #greensteel #salcos #southafrica #automotivesteel #unitedsteel #salzgitterag #malbenengineering

Lightweight design and construction remains one of the driving topics in automotive engineering. In addition to aluminum, steel concepts entailing soft deep-drawing steels (IF - interstitial free) or bake-hardening steels (BH) are predominately finding use in automotive outer skins. These materials can be appropriately substituted by the use of thin dual-phase (DP) steels with a thickness range of less than or equal to 0.6 mm, thereby opening up a high lightweight engineering potential of up to 17%. Special application areas may include doors and flaps, fenders or even the roof. Thanks to these weight savings CO2-emissions can be reduced both in the production and in the utilization phase. Curious to learn more about our innovative solutions and how we support the automotive industry?
