Reduce footprint - create added value.

In times like these, efficient energy use is a top priority. That is why AMAG Austria Metall AG also focuses on the use of renewable electricity and is making a contribution with one of Austria’s largest rooftop photovoltaic systems, which generates approximately 13 GWh of energy annually. In the long term, fossil fuels are to be completely replaced - a challenge for companies.

Water cycle
AMAG Austria Metall AG uses water efficiently and in accordance with operational requirements. It is used for cooling during the casting of rolling slabs. The cooling water is recycled. Improvements to the circulation systems have made it possible to keep water consumption and specific water withdrawal constant over the years, despite increasing production capacity.

We protect meadows, forests, and bees.

The preservation and promotion of biodiversity are important components of the AMAG Group's commitment to sustainability. Green space management on the company premises and the management of the company's own forest are at the forefront here. AMAG Austria Metall AG also cooperates with the Upper Austria-Salzburg Beekeeping Association to breed healthy bees in the recreational area around the Ranshofen site. 

In 2024, AMAG opened a forest trail around two kilometres long, inviting visitors of all ages to explore the fascinating world of the forest in all its facets. 
The AMAG forest trail makes it possible to experience how forests are changing and adapting in the wake of climate change. 
At various stations, visitors can find out which tree species are sustainable, why old trees play a key role in biodiversity and how sensitive species 
such as spruce react to rising temperatures. Historical insights also show how the forest has changed since the 1950s - into a resilient, climate-fit ecosystem.
