ArcelorMittal inaugurates Arceo (Belgium)
Today ArcelorMittal inaugurates Arceo, its industrial prototype for a vacuum plasma steel coating line located in Liège, Belgium.
This breakthrough technology, developed as a world first by the Group’s Research and Development in partnership with the Walloon Region, will open up a host of new uses for flat steel products. With this process steel can be a sensor, a reflector, a source of light, an anti-bacterial or self-cleaning surface, or just simply more aesthetic or endowed with better anti-corrosive properties.
This process is one of ArcelorMittal’s promising development projects and will contribute to renewing and expanding its product range. Respectful of the environment it enables the production of environmentally friendly products that allow for sustainable development.
According to Christophe Cornier, EVP Flat Carbon Western Europe, with Arceo ArcelorMittal will transform the future of steel, opening up new horizons for it. Greg Ludkovsky, VP Research and Development, said that they were very happy to see that this project initiated within their research centres was becoming an industrial success.
