Sustainable Steel

THE MOST SUSTAINABLE STEEL IN MEXICO

A sustainable supply and production process. DEACERO is the largest steel recycler in Mexico.

Over 3.8 million tons of recycled steel processed annually.

100% recycled steel

Latin America’s leading steel producer and the first in Mexico to develop Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).

We use only one-quarter of the water per ton of steel compared to the national average in Mexico.

99% of ferrous waste is reused within our steelmaking process.

THE MOST SUSTAINABLE STEEL IN MEXICO

We produce steel with the lowest CO₂ emissions in North America. five times lower than the global average.

Average CO₂ emissions per ton of steel among World Steel Association members (covering ~70% of global output): 1.9 t CO₂ /ton steel.

Average CO₂ emissions from BF-BOF (Blast Furnace–Basic Oxygen Furnace) integrated steel plants: 2.3 tons of CO₂ per ton of steel produced.

Average CO₂ emissions from EAF (Electric Arc Furnace) mini-mills: 0.6 tons of CO₂ per ton of steel produced

Mexico's national average: 1.3 t CO₂ per ton of steel.

DEACERO: Just 0.36 t CO₂ per ton of hot-rolled steel produced.
