Did you know that 20% of our steel comes from scrap? At ArcelorMittal Belgium, we are fully committed to recycling and a circular economy. Our scrap yard is the place where old steel gets a new life. 🔄 🚢 Europe exports up to 18 million tonnes of scrap each year, but we reuse as much as possible ourselves. Old factory halls, bridges, cars and even entire steel plants are melted down into new steel. 🔍 Looking at a scrap yard? Then you see your entire household: cooking pots, bicycles, car pieces, cutlery and even refrigerators. Almost anything magnetic can be reused! ⚙️ In the last five years, we have given an average of 925,000 tonnes of scrap metal a second life every year. That's the weight of more than 126 times the Eiffel Tower! 💡 Scrap metal is 100% recyclable, which is why almost nothing disappears into landfill. Sustainability starts here! 📽️ View our scrap yard from above and discover the circular future of steel. 🌍🔄 #RecycleDay #CircularEconomy #ArcelorMittalBelgium

Yesterday, I had an inspiring strategic conversation with rector Rik Van de Walle of Ghent University. A valuable discussion on how to strengthen our collaboration and build innovation and talent development together. 🤝 With focus on metallurgy ⚙️, digitisation 🤖, decarbonisation 🌍 and reliability 🔧, we remain committed to progress. At the same time, we want to broaden our cooperation. By joining forces, we not only make the bridge between industry and academia stronger, but also contribute to a sustainable and innovative ecosystem in Ghent and beyond. #TogetherBetter #Innovation #Futureoriented ArcelorMittal Belgium

One year after the Antwerp Declaration, 400 people, including ArcelorMittal Europe CEO Geert Van Poelvoorde, gathered in Antwerp. Their message was clear: #DeliverTheDeal. Action is needed to restore investment, protect jobs, and strengthen Europe's competitiveness!

🩺The Clean Industrial Deal: right diagnosis, but more radical treatment needed The European Commission’s Clean Industrial Deal recognises steel’s strategic role, but solutions to pressing issues - global overcapacity, CBAM loopholes, energy costs, scrap - are left open, incomplete, or insufficient. ⚠️ Without urgent, structural change, including short-term recovery measures, we risk losing Europe’s industrial backbone. ⚙️ Steel is the foundation of Europe’s economy, security and, ultimately, sovereignty. As Mario Draghi warned last week, with recent geopolitical shifts, the case for 'radical change' is even greater —to restore competitiveness, attract investment, and secure a #StrongerWithEUSteel future. 📅 Next key steps? After tomorrow's extraordinary ministerial conference convened by French Industry Minister Marc Ferracci jointly with his Italian counterpart Adolfo Urso on the future of European steel, the first Strategic Dialogue on Steel on 4 March - called by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen - will be crucial in pushing for a stronger treatment for the sector. This must lead to a robust, comprehensive EU Steel Action Plan.  The time to act is NOW. #SaveEUSteel Read our full press release via the link in the first comment 👇 Teresa Ribera, Stéphane Séjourné, Wopke Hoekstra, Polish presidency of the Council of the European Union, European Parliament.
