Europe’s biggest material recycling center

Outokumpu’s production uses the highest proportion of recycled content within the industry – over 85%. Our Tornio mill plays a vital role by turning over 1 million tonnes of scrap a year into top-quality stainless steel products.

Sustainable stainless steel production

Outokumpu contributes to a more sustainable world by producing stainless steel – a material with superior durability, longevity and recyclability. But it is not only what we produce, but how we produce it. Here we tell the story of our Tornio stainless steel mill in Northern Finland and how it works in harmony with nature.

“Stainless steel is amazing”

Maija Mehtälä, Environmental Engineer at Tornio, explains why stainless steel offers an amazing combination of performance and sustainability.
