Outokumpu’s Kemi mine in Northern Finland is taking a major step toward a more circular mining industry. Together with the EU-funded Lapland Mining Hub (Lapin liitto / The Regional Council of Lapland) and Business Kemi - Digipolis, we are launching an extensive, data-driven circular economy ecosystem to transform mine side streams from waste into valuable resources. The goal is to build a long-term industrial model for utilizing side streams and transforming them into new business opportunities. With nearly 3 million tonnes of waste rock and tailings generated annually, the Kemi mine has significant potential for new applications, which could include: 🏗️ Low-carbon cement alternatives 🌱 Soil improvement ♨️ Heat storage ⚒️ Mineral recovery “Utilizing mine side streams is no longer just an environmental act — it’s becoming a key part of competitiveness and security of supply. As the EU’s only chromium mine, Kemi has a strategic role in strengthening mineral self-sufficiency and a low-emission value chain,” says Martti Sassi, President, Business Area Ferrochrome at Outokumpu.

Circularity. Evolved. In 2025, we recycled more than 2 million tonnes of scrap into new stainless steel. That's roughly the weight of 300 Eiffel Towers! Our record-high recycled content of 97% is a key reason why our stainless steel has a 75% lower carbon footprint than the industry average.

In the realm of high-end bar design, where aesthetics and functionality converge, Temoco has emerged as a leading bar and restaurant furniture provider in the Nordics - using Outokumpu stainless steel as a key ingredient. Temoco's designs, which elevate the entire bar experience, leverage stainless steel's strengths through minimalist forms – picture shelves that seem to float effortlessly and bar tops that appear impossibly thin yet remain remarkably sturdy. Our stainless steel is ideally suited to the hygienic demands of a bar setting, and the resistance to corrosion is invaluable in an environment prone to spills and splashes. Temoco exploits this quality to craft seamless surfaces, eliminating the tiny crevices where dirt and grime can accumulate and ensuring their pieces retain a pristine appearance over years of use.
