At this year's HANNOVER MESSE, Salzgitter AG will be exhibiting for the first time in Hall 13, where companies from the hydrogen and fuel cell industry will be showcased. "Steel is of crucial importance for the emerging hydrogen infrastructure. We are making this clear with our change of location," explains Frank Seinsche, responsible for trade fairs in the Salzgitter Group. "In addition, hydrogen plays an outstanding role in the decarbonization of industrial processes, including in our steel industry."

The presentation of the Group's new green steel brand SALCOS also fits in with the change of location. With the SALCOS transformation program of the same name, the Salzgitter Group is gradually converting its steel production to hydrogen-based processes with the aim of achieving virtually CO2-free steel production. Under the SALCOS brand, the Group will in future market green steel products that meet defined criteria - for example, those of a demanding physical CO2 reduction. The product brand is thus based on the system of the German Steel Federation, which supports the development of green lead markets for climate-friendly products with its proposal.
