Smarter steels for people and planet
At ArcelorMittal, our goal is to help build a better world with smarter steels. Steels made using innovative processes which are more efficient, use less energy, and emit significantly less carbon. Steels that are cleaner, stronger and reusable. Steels for electric vehicles and renewable energy infrastructure that will support societies as they transform through this century.
We foster this culture of innovation by putting research and development at the heart of our operations. We have some of the best and brightest people in the business – engineers who work for us because they get to tackle the most complex of problems.
With approximately 154,000 employees, we are more than just a company, we are a community. We are driven by an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for excellence, never accepting that the limits of our material have been reached. We will continue to push boundaries, whether developing technologies to reduce the carbon footprint of steel, transforming the built environment with our new construction solutions, 3D printing automotive parts using steel powders or, through the adoption of artificial intelligence and advanced automation across our operations. This is what it takes to be the steel company of the future.
Research and development
Led by our global research and development (R&D) teams, and supported throughout every facet of the business, we are the market leader in innovation. We continually look for technological advances that allow us to make new steels while improving manufacturing processes at the same time. This commitment to innovation extends beyond new products and processes to encompass how we can positively impact the life of people all over the world. And we are keenly focused on maximizing this influence by fully capitalizing on the broad range of opportunities offered to us by today’s digital economy.
Global R&D is an ambidextrous organization, serving simultaneously our business of today and building the foundation for the business of tomorrow. Broad diversity, a can-do mindset and global reach are the key strengths of our organization.
