“Saarstahl Rail Reinvents Steelmaking with Eco-Friendly Rails: A 70% Reduction in CO2 Emissions”
In an article published by Le Républicain Lorrain, Saarstahl Rail, a major player in the steel industry, highlights its commitment to sustainability with the launch of its “green” rails. This innovative product, made from recycled rail waste within a circular economy system, offers an eco-friendly alternative for passenger and freight transport. By using an electric arc furnace to melt the waste into blooms before rolling them into rails, the process reduces CO2 emissions by up to 70% compared to traditional methods. This advancement underscores Saarstahl Rail’s effort to transform the rail industry while contributing to the fight against climate change.
