Nippon Steel Corporation

Nippon Steel Corporation ("Nippon Steel") has launched a new brand, NSCarbolex™ Solution, which comprehensively features advanced products and technical solutions to contribute to reducing CO₂ emissions in society.
Under “Nippon Steel Carbon Neutral Vision 2050,” which we at Nippon Steel formulated with the goal of realizing a carbon neutral society by 2050, we hope to contribute to CO₂ emission reduction in society by offering our advanced products and technical solutions, in addition to reducing CO₂ emissions in our own manufacturing processes.
Aiming at reducing CO₂ emissions in society, we will deliver our value from the following three perspectives: reducing CO₂ emissions in customers' manufacturing processes, reducing CO₂ emissions during the use of customer’s products in society, and contributing to energy transition in society with the goal of realizing a carbon neutral society.
Our advanced products and technical solutions are already contributing to CO₂ emission reduction in various areas of society. Some specific examples include NSafe™-AutoConcept, which reduces CO₂ emissions during the manufacturing and driving of vehicles; high-efficiency electrical steel sheets that improve motor efficiency and reduce energy losses in power grids; ProStruct™, a brand to offer solutions for construction materials to enhance productivity on construction sites; and HRX19™ stainless steel for high-pressure hydrogen environments to contribute to the realization of a hydrogen society. Going forward, we will strive further to meet customer needs by adding advanced products and technical solutions equipped with these capabilities to the NSCarbolex™ Solution brand and enhancing and expanding the product and solution lineup through the development of products and technologies.
NSCarbolex™ is a brand that integrates NSCarbolex™ Neutral, steel products announced earlier this year that are certified as reducing CO₂ emissions in the steelmaking process, and NSCarbolex™ Solution, which is described in this press release. To communicate our work surrounding these products and outcomes in an easy-to-understand way, we have recently opened a website focusing on NSCarbolex™, through which we will provide information on the brand. At the same time, we will enhance and expand the brand product and solution menu and establish a stable supply system to help our customers decarbonize their businesses and increase their market competitiveness, then eventually contribute to the realization of a carbon neutral society.
