2.  Economic
 Social
 Environmental

3. 1. Profit Making
2. Competitive Edge
3. Adapting to Better Technology (especially Artificial Intelligence)
4. Governmental Policies
5. Eco-Innovative Products … nothing wasted mentality

4.  This is Purely Economic Sustainability
 Tata Steel (Previous Owners) were making a loss a year earlier (about £79 million)
before British Steel Ltd started making a small profit (£49 pre-tax)
 This is a business – we are majorly interested in profits (Equity > Liabilities)
 Cutting Expenses, investing in the future , lean processes, Hard Work
 Its always about the Long Term Profits for us

5.  I prefer the concept of “dominating” more than “competing”
 E.g. there are other competing word processing software out there but Microsoft Word
Dominates all of them
 Helping our Clients achieve their aims through steel
 Sadly, we have competition
 Economically we need to be the most profitable – eg winning all the contracts
 Socially we need to be the most ethical with our suppliers/ contractors, communities, and
in-house fellow workers
 Environmentally we need to dominate in taking care of our environment and subscribing
to a “nothing-wasted” mentality

6.  Mainly Social Sustainability
 During Industrial Revolution, many manual workers became unemployed due to
the introduction of machines.
 Many workers had to couple manufacturing-knowledge with machine-knowledge to get
back in to industry
 Then came Computers that automated Machines better than a human
 Yet again, many workers had to couple manufacturing-knowledge with computer-
knowledge to get back in to industry
 Artificial Intelligence on the Rise
 Manufacturing-knowledge is not enough. We need to couple other-relevant-knowledge –
this is our challenge

7.  Was Mr Gary Klesh right? – an industrial list also interested in Tata’s Sunthorpe’s
Site declined saying that British Government Department for Business does not
take care of its energy-intensive industries. Mr Klesh said
“You have Middle Eastern countries giving free gas to aluminium smelters and
the Chinese government supporting their steel industry. We don’t have a level
playing field.(1)”
 This is an on-going debate
 How will Brexit affect us?
 How will Donald Trump’s decisions affect us?

8. GOOD STANDARDS OF BRITISH
STEEL LTD
 British Steel Ltd has “very good”
rating under the Sustainability
Standard BES6001
 We need to stay very well below the
BES6001 as a challenge and
improving on our best performances
every year
Scunthorpe’s Sustainability
Performance Data

9. GOOD STANDARDS OF BRITISH
STEEL LTD
 Planting Trees
 Re-use of water
 Multicycling
 Re-use of materials
 Drawing electricity from the 9th
Largest Solar farm in the UK =
reducing CO2 emission by 20K tonne
per year
 Presently having a Successful 3 year
program to reduce Dust (Harmful to
Environment)
REWASTEE (2)
 EU-Funded program that began
early this year to make Dust
profitable on all parts of
sustainability
 Electric Arc Furnace Dust (EAFD)
 Either Zinc is extracted and then to
landfill or
 Directly to Landfill

10.  Method
 PCM = Phase Changing Material
 The Shape Stabilized PCM is materially non-hazardrous and thermally inert (due
to added PCM), excellent sound insulation and can be used for various function
alone or coupled with other materials in the construction industry.
 Our Challenge would be making lucrative eco-innovative products over next 5
years to benefit us economically, socially and environmentally
