Aperam Marks its 15th Anniversary with a Circular Integrated Model

Organizational Structure and Vertical Integration

Aperam organizes its activities around four interconnected segments: Stainless & Electrical Steel, which produces high-quality steels from recycled scrap in Europe and low-carbon bio-coal in Brazil; Recycling & Renewables, which secures the supply of sustainable raw materials; Alloys & Specialties, which provides high-performance materials globally; and Services & Solutions, which connects production with customers through 14 service centers, 4 processing facilities, 15 commercial offices, and the largest e-commerce platform for stainless steel outside China. This vertical integration forms the foundation of the group's vision: to be a value-creating leader in the circular economy of infinite materials.

Market Position and Strategic Outlook

Aperam ranks among the top three non-Asian stainless steel producers and the top three global players in alloys. The group is also the world's second-largest recycler of stainless steel and the leading recycler of aerospace alloys. The CEO emphasizes that the company is entering the coming years as a 'strong and diversified global producer' with a roadmap aimed at strengthening its presence in the markets where it operates, particularly in light of the increasing localization of supply and demand. This strategy is supported by the 'Leadership Journey®' program, a multi-year, multi-phase plan focused on transformation, cost efficiency, and growth. The group reaffirms its commitment to circularity, with nearly a quarter of its over 13,000 employees working in the Recycling & Renewables segment.
