Launch of the new EUROFER website
Recent updates
The European Steel Association (EUROFER) has launched its new and refreshed website, making finding out about the European steel industry and the work of its Brussels-based trade association clearer and more accessible.
The new site is fully reactive, making it much easier to use on mobile devices. It makes use of EUROFER's new graphic identity and logo, which is fresher and reflects the European steel industry's transition to becoming a green sector at the heart of the European economy.
Content can be searched for using tags or directly within the issues section or within the various types of publication produced by EUROFER. It is now much clearer what type of document you are accessing when you browse the EUROFER website.
The statistics section has been completely refreshed, reflecting the importance of good statistical data in the work of the Association. The new statistics section has a fully interactive, integrated graphical tool which is directly linked to the EUROFER statistical database. This means that with the press of a few buttons you will be able to see the latest trends in employment, imports and exports, production and more. All of these statistical queries are downloadable.
The whole EUROFER teams hopes you enjoy using our website and find its contents useful.
Brussels, 13 February 2025 – Following the high-level conference “A Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism for Climate - Addressing carbon leakage to strengthen global climate action”, organised in Paris by the European Commission and the French Ministries of Finance, Economics and Climate Transition, EUROFER emphasises that simplification must go hand in hand with ensuring the instrument’s effectiveness. This means addressing key issues such as resource shuffling, exports, and the inclusions of products further down the value chain.

Brussels, 06 February 2025 – The economic and geopolitical conditions that have affected the European steel market over the past two years show no signs of improvement and have further deepened their negative impact on the sector in 2024. Growing uncertainty continues to weigh also on 2025 and 2026, with the outlook hinging on unpredictable developments especially as regards international trade. According to EUROFER’s latest Economic and Steel Market Outlook, the recession in apparent steel consumption in 2024 will be steeper than previously projected (-2.3%, down from -1.8%) and the expected recovery in 2025 has now been downgraded (+2.2%, down from +3.8%). Similarly, steel-using sectors’ recession has been revised downwards for 2024 (-3.3% from -2.7%), while growth projections for 2025 have also been lowered (+0,9% from +1.6%). Some acceleration is not expected until 2026 (+2.1%). Steel imports remain at historically high levels (28%) also in the third quarter of 2024.
