Why we need steel in the UK
  • Serve the nation: the UK's steelmakers produce steel for UK projects.
  • Uplift: when UK steel is bought, the UK's steel industry helps boost social and economic prosperity.
  • Huge amounts of steel will be needed for the UK's net zero future, GB Energy and major rail and infrastructure developments.
  • To foster important skills in the UK workforce with training in all areas of steel manufacturing, engineering, and metallurgy.
  • Cutting our carbon: our industry is transforming to use new steelmaking techniques.
