How steel shapes a better future

Steel’s central role in the development of our society means that we who work in the steel industry have a special responsibility. That is why steel companies in Sweden, including Höganäs, have agreed on a vision for 2050: Steel shapes a better future. This vision is meant to show how the steel industry now actively participates in the ongoing shift to a sustainable society.

Every day the steel industry in Sweden contributes to society worldwide through its products. Now it intends to become an even more active participant in the ongoing shift to a sustainable future – taking greater responsibility for people and the environment. In March 2013, the steel industry in Sweden therefore decided to adopt an industry-wide vision leading up to 2050: Steel shapes a better future.

Vision 2045This vision consists of three undertakings:

  • We lead technical development – our research and innovation revolutionize technology for tomorrow's society. Our steel constantly challenges the frontiers of engineering.
  • We nurture creative individuals – our working environment fosters new solutions for communities through global collaboration. Our creativity constantly challenges the limits of contemporary thinking.
  • We create environmental benefits – our production uses resources so efficiently that only products of value to the community leave our plants. Our ambition constantly challenges the limits of the possible.
