When Mittal Steel and Arcelor merged in 2006 to form the world’s largest steel company, the newly formed ArcelorMittal was founded on three values: sustainability, quality and leadership.
Sustainability, because we are guiding the evolution of steel to secure the best future for the industry and for generations to come.
Quality, because we want the steel we produce to be at the cutting edge of technology; and because we need the best people to deliver on our goals.
Leadership, because we are proud of our entrepreneurial spirit and the opportunities that visionary thinking can bring to the company.
These three values, together with our operating philosophy of producing safe, sustainable steel, have guided ArcelorMittal through its first five years of operations.
This philosophy also encompasses our company-wide priority, health and safety, and our Journey to Zero campaign, we are pleased to say that we have made major progress in our goal of improving health and safety at ArcelorMittal.
As well as pursuing this priority, we also set ourselves the challenge of ‘transforming tomorrow’, a promise that reflects our belief that steel is helping to build the infrastructure of the modern world. As an infinitely recyclable material that is highly adaptable, steel can be a sustainable material that is part of modern life, from providing steel for the trains and cars used in the daily journey to work, to being used in the buildings we live in and the sports stadiums and art galleries we visit.
