EUROFER has created a range of position papers for various aspects of the REACH file. These are available here.

Brussels, 6 May 2026 - Europe’s steel industry has warned that the EU’s proposed Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA) risks undermining its industrial and climate ambitions, unless it ensures that demand for low-carbon steel prioritises production within the EU.
EUROFER strongly supports the Act’s objective of creating lead markets for low-carbon steel as a critical tool to unlock the massive investments needed for the green transition of the European steel industry and facilitate the market uptake of low-carbon steel.
The signatories call on the European Parliament and Council to ensure an effective and broad extension of the CBAM to relevant steel and aluminium intensive downstream industries.
