The software to reduce CO2 emissions through ecodesign
Sidenor a développé un logiciel qui permet de calculer l’empreinte écologique de plus de 20.000 références d’acier, sous l’angle de l’analyse du cycle de vie (LCA - Life cCcle Assessment)
With this tool, Sidenor is able to identify the processes and materials with the greatest environmental impact and develop the optimal ecodesign process for each product.
The software takes into account all the characteristics that define a product in the calculation, such as composition, finish, heat treatments, profile, and dimensions.
At Sidenor, we are committed to conducting quantitative environmental assessments of our products and to transparent environmental communication with our customers.
Sidenor figure parmi les fournisseurs d’aciers spéciaux à faible empreinte carbone les plus performants
At Sidenor, we eco-design based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to reduce the environmental footprint of our products. We also offer our customers the option of purchasing Sustainable Steels and Carbon-Neutral Steels.
Acier Durable Sidenor et Acier Neutre Sidenor
Low-Emissions Steels
- 100% renewable electrical energy, resulting in steel with low carbon emissions.
- EAF manufacturing route production. Steel manufactured from 100% recycled or recovered scrap.
- Ecodesign. Ad-hoc steel product design.
- 100% renewable. Detailed PCF value.
- 100% renewable electrical energy, resulting in steel with low carbon emissions.
- EAF manufacturing route production. Steel manufactured from 100% recycled or recovered scrap.
- We neutralize all remaining emissions, from cradle to gate.
- Ecodesign. Ad-hoc steel product design.
L’électricité utilisée au cours du processus sidérurgique fait l’objet d’une vérification indépendante ; elle est dotée d’une
« garantie d’origine » qui atteste qu’elle provient de sources renouvelables.
La durabilité écologique est un élément clé dans la stratégie de Sidenor. Pour y parvenir, il est indispensable de recourir à l’énergie d’origine renouvelable.
Starting in 2025, all the electricity consumed at our facilities will be from renewable sources, thus avoiding the emission of more than 150.000t of CO₂ anually.
Objectifs Climatiques et SBTi
Sidenor has approved new targets to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, which have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.
This approval means that the target is based on scientific criteria and aligned with the goal of keeping global warming below 1.5°C, and meets the objectives of the Paris Agreement.
Sidenor has committed to following the Science-Based Targets initiative and has set ambitious targets. We will contribute to curbing global warming.
In addition to direct greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the company’s activities (Scope 1), Sidenor is now also setting ambitious targets to reduce Scope 2 emissions (related to energy) and Scope 3 emissions (raw materials, transportation, etc.).
Scope 1
Direct greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the company's activities.
Scope 2
Emissions associated with electricity consumption.
Scope 3
Emissions related to raw materials, transportation, etc.

Critères de gestion environnementale de l’entreprise
Sidenor applique sa gestion environnementale de manière intégrale et transversale à l’ensemble de l’organisation (personnes et processus) afin d’améliorer constamment ses performances et de réduire ainsi les impacts environnementaux de son activité et de ses produits.
Sous l’angle de l’évaluation du cycle de vie (ECV) de l’acier, nous appliquons les critères environnementaux dans toutes les phases de production : conception, sélection des fournisseurs, optimisation des matières premières, réduction de la consommation d’énergie, gestion des déchets et amélioration des processus de production et de la logistique.
L’ECV nous permet en outre de quantifier les émissions en amont et en aval de nos aciers tout au long de leur cycle de vie.
Stratégie de Décarbonation
Climate Change
Sidenor, consciente de la nécessité d’un changement, a intégré à sa stratégie d’entreprise la décarbonation et l’économie circulaire en tant qu’axes principaux visant à garantir sa compétitivité. Dans le cadre de notre stratégie de décarbonation :
Énergie Renouvelable
Sidenor has acquired solar parks that guarantee the consumption of 100% renewable electrical energy.
This initiative is part of Sidenor’s commitment to decarbonization through the consumption of 100% renewable energy.
Hydrogène Vert
Gas consumption is the greatest decarbonization challenge that we are facing.
By 2025, we will have the necessary equipment to conduct the first industrial test with green hydrogen in our production process.
Process Electrification
The electrification of the vacuum process in the steelworks will lead to an emission reduction of > 6,000 t CO₂ per year.
Biomass
In 2023, we signed a supply agreement for biogenic coal, which allows us to decarbonize part of the coal consumption in the electric furnace process.
Ecodesign Tools
Ecodesign is the main tool for reducing the Scope 3 footprint, and has also a significant impact on our customers’ footprint.
Ecodesign example: Optimizing steel quality
The choice of steel quality can significantly affect the CO₂ footprint, primarily due to the contribution of the supply chain.
Energy Efficiency
In the last 5 years, we have managed to reduce specific gas consumption (kWh/t) by 14%, moving towards a more efficient and sustainable production model.
Certifications:
Transparence et Qualité des Données
Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
The process for preparing environmental product declarations is certified by a third party according to the EPD® System, as well as by the Product Carbon Footprint management system in accordance with the UNE-EN ISO 14067:2019 standard and the PCR 2015:03 Basic iron or steel products & Special steels, except construction products v2.0.
