Acerinox introduces EcoACX®, a stainless steel that meets the rising need for low-carbon materials. The company links this launch to the global push for decarbonisation, and its customers now gain a solution that supports their own sustainability goals.
EcoACX® delivers the same quality, strength, and corrosion resistance as the company’s traditional grades. However, Acerinox now produces it in a more responsible way. The product targets businesses that demand reliable performance and a lower carbon footprint.
The company positions EcoACX® as a material that shifts how manufacturers think and work. It cuts Acerinox’s emissions, and it also lowers the Scope 3 emissions of its customers. The company builds this product on the natural sustainability of stainless steel and moves one step further with stronger environmental responsibility.
EcoACX® uses 90 per cent recycled content, and it lowers CO₂ intensity by 50 per cent per tonne of stainless steel. Acerinox also uses 100 per cent renewable energy for its production. In addition, the company supports this with three validated sustainability indicators inside a tool that its own team developed.
Acerinox places EcoACX® at the centre of its “360 Positive Impact” plan. The company connects this launch to its long-term push for efficient and responsible manufacturing. The team views the product as proof that sustainability and high performance can grow together.
A strong and committed team drives EcoACX®. The company also brings its experience and purpose into the project and turns the idea into a practical solution for the stainless steel sector. Acerinox believes EcoACX® shows how industry players can build a cleaner and more reliable future.
