Arabian Gulf Steel Industries LLC (AGSI), the national company specialized in manufacturing sustainable steel based in Abu Dhabi, announced achieving “net zero” at its steel plant in Abu Dhabi. This commitment is part of the company’s strategy to enhance environmental responsibility and sustainable manufacturing.
The company’s efforts align with the objectives of the National Strategy for Industry and Advanced Technology, particularly in promoting innovation and adopting advanced technology in industrial systems and solutions. This initiative also supports the strategic goal of achieving net zero by 2050, circular economy targets, and green industries.
“We continue to take decisive steps to enhance the company’s efforts in green industries by using modern technologies and sustainable steel manufacturing processes, thereby supporting the UAE’s goals for a sustainable economic future,” said Asam Hussain, CEO of AGSI.
He added: “We work on strengthening our commitment to environmental, social, and governance practices, ensuring a significant and continuous impact on the steel industry in the UAE and contributing to a positive transformation in the industry. Our net zero emission steel plant is a testament to our commitment to environmental management, supporting the UAE’s vision to become a regional hub for sustainable manufacturing. This enhances the dissemination of our sustainable model in the UAE industrial sector, transferring this experience to other sectors.”
The reuse and recycling of local steel by AGSI with the aim of producing new steel for local construction and infrastructure projects, using technologies that extend the lifespan of steel materials, reduces carbon emissions compared to traditional production methods.
The company adopts a roadmap in this vital and fundamental field, making it a model for other sectors. Its experience serves as an encouraging incentive for other high-emission industries to transition to a new phase that meets environmental and sustainable requirements.
