South Korea’s SeAH Steel has secured a contract to supply approximately 1,750 tons of stainless steel pipes for a carbon capture project in Teesside, northern England, marking the company’s entry into the UK’s growing carbon capture infrastructure sector.
The Teesside project forms part of the UK’s East Coast Cluster, one of the country’s first large-scale carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) initiatives aimed at reducing industrial carbon emissions.
SeAH Steel said the contract strengthens its position in the emerging low-carbon infrastructure market as investment in carbon capture projects continues to accelerate across Europe.
SeAH Steel is South Korea’s leading steel pipe manufacturer and a key subsidiary of the SeAH Group. The company produces welded steel pipes, stainless steel pipes and steel plates for the energy, automotive, shipbuilding and industrial sectors. SeAH Steel operates manufacturing facilities in South Korea with a combined annual production capacity exceeding 2.2 mln tons, while also maintaining production bases in the UAE, Vietnam, the US and Italy.
