EMSTEEL targets a 40% reduction in steel emissions and 30% in cement by 2030, using a natural gas-based DRI-EAF production route that emits 0.67 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of steel in 2024. The company integrates carbon capture and has achieved ResponsibleSteel certification.

EMSTEEL collaborates with ADNOC on carbon capture and Masdar on green hydrogen steelmaking, supplying low-carbon rebar to Abu Dhabi's first net-zero mosque. Circularity is prioritized by reusing steelmaking slag in cement production. EMSTEEL aligns with the UAE's Net Zero 2050 vision, enhancing local procurement and fostering industrial resilience.
