SSAB is proud to announce that Meneta Group has implemented SSAB Zero™ steel in its automotive brake components, a significant step toward a more sustainable future in vehicle manufacturing.

This milestone builds on our 2023 announcement of a strategic partnership with Meneta, a global leader in brake components and sealing materials. With SSAB Zero™ now integrated into Meneta’s production of shims, backplates, clips, and sealing materials, the company is actively reducing its Scope 3 CO₂ emissions. Initial reductions are estimated at 5,500 to 6,000 tonnes annually, with a long-term goal of 60,000 tonnes.


“We are extremely happy to welcome Meneta as a partner for SSAB Zero™ steel,” said Jan Meier, Sales Director at SSAB Europe. “Together, we are building a fossil-free value chain for the automotive industry, all the way to the end customer.”

SSAB Zero™ is produced using recycled steel and fossil-free electricity, resulting in zero fossil carbon emissions during production. This aligns with Meneta’s ambition to be among the first suppliers in the automotive industry to offer components with significantly reduced CO₂ footprints.
