The group comprises five key divisions: Steel Production, Manufacturing, Scrap, Distribution & Processing, and Headquarters & Other Services. Specializing in high-value steel products such as stainless steels, tool steels, and special quarto steels, SIJ solidifies its position in the European and global niche steel markets.

In the early 1990s, SIJ Group shifted its operations to utilize recycled steel scrap instead of blast furnaces, achieving a benchmark level of CO₂ emissions three decades ago that is now considered exceptional in the industry. While the CO₂ intensity of the SIJ Group is notably lower than the global average, the company remains dedicated to further reducing emissions. Significant investments in best available technology (BAT) have been made, with numerous future investments planned. These investments are part of SIJ Group's strategy to reduce CO2 intensity by 51% by 2030 compared to the 2020 baseline and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Founded in 1969, SIJ Group operates within the Design and Manufacturing industries.
