KIRCHHOFF Automotive, the renowned manufacturer & supplier of complex metal and hybrid structures for vehicles, has signed a 7-year agreement with H2 Green Steel, the Swedish impact company, to deliver near-zero emissions steel from Boden.
By strategically collaborating with H2 Green Steel, KIRCHHOFF Automotive has taken a step ahead in its journey to decarbonize its supply chain and achieve its sustainability goals. Steel is the key component in its products, accounting for circa 50% of its material purchases. Therefore, 90% of its carbon footprint is currently associated with the conventionally produced steel and aluminum being used. Based on orders for upcoming generations of vehicles from leading automakers, KIRCHHOFF Automotive sees that the demand for safe & sustainable body-in-white parts will phenomenally grow in the forthcoming years.
The deliveries from H2 Green Steel to KIRCHHOFF Automotive will be expected to begin from 2027 across the latter’s plants established in Europe.
As early as 2022, KIRCHHOFF Automotive began a process of determining the location of greenhouse gas emissions in their supply chain (Scope 3), both upstream at suppliers and downstream at customers. The company also has an overall goal to establish a high level of sustainability in the automotive industry’s supply chains, which is also underlined by the fact that KIRCHHOFF Automotive is one of the founding members of the “Responsible Supply Chain Initiative RSCI e. V.” association.
