ArcelorMittal has steelmaking facilities in 19 countries, and is the leader in all main steel markets. ArcelorMittal is the world’s leading steel company, with an annual production capacity of around 115 million tons and operations in 60 countries.

ArcelorMittal’s flat operations produce slabs, hot-rolled coil, cold-rolled coil, coated steel products, tinplate and heavy plate. These products are sold to steel-consuming industries such as heavy machinery, automotive, pipes and tubes, construction, packaging and appliances.

ArcelorMittal’s long business produces billets, blooms, rebar, wire rod, sections, rail, sheet piles and drawn wires, as well as supplying both seamless and welded tubular products. Primary markets for these products are construction and mechanical engineering, as well as energy and automotive applications.

All ArcelorMittal facilities are committed to the capture and re-use of all output materials, including those commonly seen as waste products. Indeed, aligned to core values of producing safe, sustainable steel, ArcelorMittal coordinates sales of by-products from the steelmaking process, such as slag from both integrated and mini-mills; tar and tar distillates; and various dusts collected throughout the different stages of steel production.

ArcelorMittal’s steel and steel expertise has also been involved in many unique international projects, such as the ongoing engineering efforts to save Venice from sinking; the design, production and construction of low-cost housing in disadvantaged communities alongside the charity Habitat for Humanity; and the construction of the ArcelorMittal Orbit sculpture in London’s Olympic Park.

ArcelorMittal commits to operating in a responsible way with respect to the health, safety and wellbeing of its employees, contractors and communities in which it operates. ArcelorMittal has adopted the ‘Journey to Zero’ initiative to encourage employees at all levels across the globe to take ownership of Health and Safety in order to achieve the goal of zero accidents and injuries.

Steel is the most widely used metal and most recycled material on earth. Each year the amount of steel that is recycled is double that of all other recycled materials combined; that includes glass, aluminum, paper and plastics.

Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs), like the facility in LaPlace, are among the world’s largest recyclers. EAFs produce steel utilizing almost 100% scrap metal as feedstock.

Over 14 million automobiles are recycled each year, a recycling rate of 113%. Shredders can turn a car into fist sized pieces in less than a minute. Other recycling rates include: Appliances at 90%; Steel cans at 67%; Structural steel at 98%; and Reinforcement steel at 70%.

The LaPlace facility is one of the largest recyclers in Louisiana and recycled approximately 87 million tons of scrap metal in 2014. The shredder facility, which began operations in 1995, recycled approximately 205 million pounds of scrap metal in 2014.

The off-site emissions reported are transfers of "shredded fluff," including foam and fabric from automobile seats, dashboards, and other plastic parts from automobiles and appliances. The majority of this off-site transfer is in the form of zinc which is properly landfilled.

ArcelorMittal LaPlace, LLC employees approximately 405 persons, fifty (50) percent living in the tri-parish area. The steelmaking facility has operated in St. John Parish for 34 years.
