GMH Gruppe
Welcome to Germany’s
green steel manufacturer
Steel is the backbone of modern industrial societies –
and an important component of the successful transition to a green economy
For more than 30 years, we have been producing our steel in electric arc furnaces, from almost 100 percent scrap metal. Compared to the conventional blast furnace route, we protect the climate by saving the equivalent of over one million metric tons of CO2 emissions every year, and by helping customers in a wide range of markets to significantly reduce their own carbon footprint – giving them a significant competitive advantage in tomorrow’s marketplace. Our business focuses on the following segments Circular Economy, Green Steel and Heavy Forging.

Green steel from GMH Gruppe:
the right decision
80 % lower
CO2 emissions compared with conventional blast furnace routes
Thanks to our electric arc furnaces and the use of scrap metal as a raw material, our steel currently produces around 80 % percent less CO2 emissions than with the conventional blast furnace routes produced steel. And we are taking steps to reduce emissions even further in the future.
Our target for 2039: 0 t of Scope 1+2 CO₂ emissions
We already produce steel in an electric arc furnace, using steel scrap as our main raw material. – and we have a clear roadmap for how we want to further reduce our Scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions.
With our long-standing expertise, state-of-the-art technology and a clear focus on CO2 reduction, we aim to reduce Scope 1+2 CO2 emissions by 50% by 2030 compared with the baseline year 2019.
And this is just the start: By investing in renewable energies and closed-loop manufacturing, as well as continuously searching for new, innovative ideas, we aim to reduce our Scope 1+2 emissions to 0 t by 2039.
Electricity from renewable sources.
Biogenic process carbon.
Hydrogen from renewable sources.
We have already started to steadily increase the share of renewable electricity we use, by generating it in-house and buying it from certified third parties. In addition, since 2023 we have gradually been replacing fossil coal used in our steel production with biogenic carbon. With these two measures we aim to reduce our Scope 1+2 CO2 emissions from 0.4 to just 0.05 metric tons of CO2 per metric ton of crude steel. The use of hydrogen from renewable sources offers further potential to reduce CO2 emissions in future.
Green Steel product lines
Three product lines, one goal: to cut CO2 emissions

Green Steel Calculator
The green steel in all our product lines is produced from almost 100 percent scrap metal in our electric furnaces.
In addition, our Green Power Steel is made using 100 percent renewable electricity.
Green Power Premium Steel also uses 100 percent biogenic carbon.
Scope 1: direct emissions from plant / production process
Scope 2: indirect emissions from purchased electricity
*CO2 emissions relate to volume of crude steel produced (continuously cast)
