Data collected at the source
We ask our production plants for data on the emissions embedded in steel and aluminium products, such as wire and screws.
CBAM – Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism
With CBAM, importers of steel and aluminium products must declare the emissions embedded in the goods. We collect the data from our production plants, so you have what you need for your declarations.
Reg. (EU) 2023/956Applies to: Steel and aluminium products: wire, screws
In short
- CBAM is the European mechanism that puts a price on the CO₂ emissions of imported goods, as already happens for goods made in Europe.
- The goods concerned include steel and aluminium and many of their derived products.
- The importer must declare the emissions embedded in the products, based on data supplied by the producer.
What you receive
- Embedded emissions data for steel and aluminium products
- Information on the production plant, where required

Linked to your shipments
The data comes with the order documentation, so you always know which goods it refers to.
Keeping track of changes
CBAM is evolving: we follow the new rules and adapt our requests to our production plants in good time.
