The ICTA jury awarded WireSolutions with the premio speziale “green award” (green award special prize) on 18 April 2024, in recognition of ArcelorMittal’s commitment to decarbonisation, through the development of their XCarb® recycled and renewably produced fibres. ArcelorMittal’s low carbon-emissions steel fibres have been developed for concrete reinforcement in industrial flooring, precasting, tunnelling and structural elements and have recently become available in the Italian market.
The award was presented to Alessandra Tonti, sales manager in Italy for steel fibres, WireSolutions. This award confirms the recent development of WireSolutions, both in the Italian market and in the field of low carbon-emissions steel. While this was the fifth year of the ICTA awards, this year was the first in which WireSolutions decided to participate in Italy.
ArcelorMittal’s low-carbon emissions steel, sold under the brand XCarb® recycled and renewably produced, applies to products made via the Electric Arc Furnace route using high levels of scrap steel and 100% renewable energy.
