Meneta Group is leading the sustainable agenda in the automotive braking industry as the first to produce brake components with SSAB Zero™, a recycled steel made with fossil-free energy. This innovation marks a major milestone on Meneta’s journey toward net-zero products.
By integrating SSAB Zero™ into their global manufacturing, Meneta’s customers can achieve up to 60% lower CO₂ emissions from Meneta-products, compared to conventional steel, while maintaining the same durability, performance, and quality.
“The automotive supply chain is a major contributor to global CO₂ emissions, and it is crucial for the industry to decarbonize,” says Michael Damgaard, Purchasing Director at Meneta Group. “With SSAB Zero™, we are taking a decisive step forward, showing that sustainability and high performance can go hand in hand.”
Meneta produces millions of brake components at its global facilities each year, presenting significant potential for emission reductions. With the growing availability of SSAB Zero™ steel, Meneta anticipates reaching its net-zero target ahead of plan.
“There is no doubt that sustainability is the future, and the future is now,” says Michael Damgaard. “Together with SSAB, we are proud to help drive this transformation.”
