OM Siderurgica Positions Itself at the Forefront of Europe’s Green Steel Revolution

OM Siderurgica secures over 10 million euros in contracts, driving Europe’s green steel transition with sustainable, zero-emission steel production solutions.

Italy, 26th Nov 2025 – In a pivotal move for the European steel industry, OM Siderurgica has announced the acquisition of contracts worth over 10 million euros as part of the global green steel transformation. These projects will support sustainable steel production, with installations in Germany, Sweden, and Italy that contribute to decarbonizing steel mills. Key projects include supplying feeding systems for Cold Direct Reduced Iron (CDRI), additives in Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF), large-scale conveyor systems, and slag treatment plants.

The company’s commitment to green steel technologies underscores its expertise in building turnkey material handling systems for industries transitioning to low-carbon solutions. As the steel industry pivots towards decarbonization, OM Siderurgica’s innovative solutions position it at the heart of this transformation.

Engineering Legacy and Sustainability

Founded in 1964, OM Siderurgica is renowned for its comprehensive expertise in engineering and constructing material handling systems. Although steelmaking remains a key focus, the company has expanded its reach to sectors including mining, cement, glass, food, chemicals, and recycling.

With a proven track record in providing full-scope solutions, from design and installation to start-up and after-sales support, the company leverages its deep knowledge to meet the growing demand for environmentally responsible steel production.

A Vision for the Future: Insights from CEO Pierluigi Tomasi

Pierluigi Tomasi, CEO of OM Siderurgica, reflects on the company’s role in the green steel revolution:
“Our extensive experience across diverse industries, such as food, chemicals, and mining, has equipped us to meet the environmental challenges in steelmaking. As sustainability becomes the industry’s new standard, OM Siderurgica is leading with technology to ensure precision and energy efficiency in handling materials for zero-emission steel production.”

As the steel industry faces the challenge of decarbonizing production, OM Siderurgica’s specialized expertise in material handling systems ensures its continued success in an increasingly sustainable sector.

A Circular Approach to Sustainability: Transforming Waste into Resources

In addition to its focus on reducing emissions, OM Siderurgica embraces the principles of the circular economy. The company plays a key role in transforming steelmaking by-products, particularly slag, into valuable resources. Through advanced crushing, screening, and magnetic separation, OM Siderurgica recycles ferrous components for reuse in production and repurposes inert material for use in construction, road subgrades, and more.

This “Zero Waste” approach further reinforces the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability while creating tangible economic value.

Innovation Driving the Future of Green Steel

OM Siderurgica’s innovation culture is integral to its success. The company is at the forefront of integrating cutting-edge engineering systems, such as 3D material handling plant designs and pneumatic conveying technologies, to optimize steel production processes. These advancements improve efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and minimize material loss, aligning perfectly with the goals of low-emission steel plants.

Looking ahead, OM Siderurgica is focused on revamping existing steel plants, adapting them with green technologies to meet the growing demand for sustainable production. Tomasi adds, “Our challenge will be retrofitting older steel mills with modern, green technologies. This work is critical as new plants will not meet global demand for steel, and the push to convert old plants requires advanced engineering solutions.”
