Our products form the basis of modern life, but they are often invisible in everyday life . Whether in the home, in sustainable energy generation, in private transport, when travelling comfortably by plane or on the world’s railways – our products are indispensable.

Once again this year, the #voestalpinetalks took place at the Montanuniversität in cooperation with the ÖH Leoben and all student representatives. In addition to exciting insights into our special steel plant in Kapfenberg and a varied presentation on the topic of communication, students were able to talk directly to our technicians about job opportunities with us.

Months before InnoTrans, which takes place every two years in Berlin, preparations for the most important international trade fair for transportation technology are already in full swing. Two of our four divisions in particular are very busy before and during InnoTrans: the voestalpine Railway Systems business unit of the Metal Engineering Division and the Steel Division.

24 nations, a round leather ball and pure emotion: the first match of the European Men’s Football Championship kicked off last Friday. Sport-loving Europe and the world are looking to Germany via TV and stream. Reason enough for us to take a look at the soccer highlight of the year. Because some of our products are definitely relevant for the game, for getting there and back home, for sitting comfortably in the stands, for the stadiums and so on.

To achieve the goal of steel production with net zero CO₂ emissions by 2050, our greentec steel activities include actively researching new processes and investing in projects that offer new ways to produce steel. In doing so, our goal is to create a sustainable process chain: from the production of green hydrogen, to the conversion of CO2 into storable materials. One new R&D product in which we are involved is ZEUS.

As the voestalpine Group, we committed to setting specific targets to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in 2022. Our proposed targets have now been reviewed and validated by the SBTi: our greenhouse gas emission reduction targets are in line with the Paris Agreement on Climate Change (“well-below 2°C trajectory”).
