Alfa Laval, a leading provider of heat transfer, separation, and fluid handling solutions, is partnering with SSAB, a steel company focused on sustainability, to incorporate SSAB Zero™, a unique fossil carbon emission-free and recycled steel, into its heat exchangers. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in the journey towards achieving a global carbon-neutral supply chain.By integrating SSAB's sustainable steel into Alfa Laval's heat exchangers, the partnership aims to reduce the carbon footprint of the entire value chain. The use of fossil carbon emission-free, recycled steel produced through renewable-based processes is a key step towards achieving a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.The initial phase of the collaboration will involve delivering over 100 heat exchangers this year, with even more planned for the coming years. These heat exchangers will be deployed in various applications, including HVAC, data centers, and process industries, to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions.SSAB Zero™ is a groundbreaking product with zero fossil carbon emissions in its operations. This includes purchased energy and transportation, with less than 0.05 kg CO₂e emissions per kg of steel in scope 1 and 2. SSAB follows market-based emission factors for electricity and ensures the use of fossil-free electricity through guarantees of origin. By using only recycled steel as raw material, SSAB Zero™ supports the circular economy and avoids engaging in carbon emission offsetting activities.Alfa Laval, in addition to incorporating fossil-free steel, has set a target to become carbon neutral by 2030. The company aims to eliminate emissions throughout the entire lifecycle of its products, from raw material extraction to end-of-life. To further reduce its carbon footprint, Alfa Laval is implementing recycled carbon black in its gaskets, resulting in up to 5% reduced CO₂ emissions compared to conventional gaskets.
