The global steel industry is undergoing one of its most transformative periods in recent history. From Asia to Europe to the Americas, 2024–2025 has seen an unprecedented wave of mergers and acquisitions (M&A), shifting control of strategic assets, reconfiguring global supply chains, and redrawing the map of steel production.
These M&A moves are not merely about growth—they're about survival, modernization, and market dominance in an industry facing decarbonization pressure, rising costs, and trade barriers. ArcelorMittal is making bold moves in both North and South America, strengthening its presence while optimizing its European portfolio.

Rebar, short for reinforcing bar, is a vital component in the construction industry, particularly in reinforced concrete structures. Also known as reinforcing steel or reinforcement steel, rebar is designed to improve the tensile strength of concrete, which is naturally strong in compression but weak in tension. By embedding steel bars within concrete, engineers ensure the material can handle various forces and last for decades, even in challenging conditions.
