Neutrum® is the carbon-neutral product offering from DEACERO Group®. Neutrum® products, like all DEACERO® products, are made of recycled steel and have one of the lowest CO2 emissions in the industry, with the additional benefit of offsetting those emissions to achieve neutrality.
It means that every CO2 emission released into the atmosphere is offset by the removal of an equivalent amount.
Emissions owned or controlled by the company during the production process.
Emissions caused indirectly when the energy used to make the product is produced and consumed.
Indirect emissions associated with value chain activities not owned or controlled by the company.
Neutrum® offsets DEACERO®'s already low emissions by purchasing carbon credits from nature-based projects to achieve neutrality.
The use of efficient production technologies with electric arc furnaces, combined with our constant investments in energy efficiency and the use of clean energy, make our production model one of the most sustainable in the world in terms of CO2 emissions.
Our CO2 emissions are among the lowest in the steel sector in North America1. In 2024, we emitted just 0.40 tCO2 per ton of liquid steel produced.
To combat climate change, we are committed on reducing them even further:
tCO2 / T STEEL
BY 2030
1 The study by CRU and the Steel Manufacturers Association (SMA) of June 14, 2022, reports data of 0.39t CO2 / iquid steel and 0.52t CO2 / rolled steel, considering scopes 1 and 2 in EAF production for the United States. It also reports an average of 1.67t CO2 / liquid steel and 1.94t CO2 / rolled steel considering scopes 1 and 2 in BOF production for the United States.
All carbon credits used by Neutrum® to offset emissions come from nature-based projects that have been verified by one of the following entities
Carbon-neutral steel refers to steel that offsets the equivalent of its carbon dioxide emissions through carbon credits from environmental projects. Neutrum® is the carbon-neutral steel brand offered by DEACERO Group®.
It is a financial instrument that certifies that one ton of carbon dioxide has been removed from the atmosphere. Carbon credits come from certified projects and are validated by an internationally recognized third party.

Neutrum® addresses greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions into the atmosphere through their equivalence in carbon dioxide.
We issue a certificate guaranteeing that the carbon footprint of a product has been offset, containing information so that our customers can transparently know the details of that offsetting. Our entire operation of buying and selling carbon credits is certified by an independent third party.
Neutrum® is already available through DEACERO Group® companies. Contact us to inquire about the product of your interest.
