We have a clear vision of our future: to be the world leader in stainless solutions. This vision complies with the 3 ArcelorMittal values: leadership, quality, sustainability. This vision is expressed in 5 strategic levers.

To be the champion of customer development by offering you solutions precisely tailored to your problems.
For example, in the new stainless steel market scenario, we are confident that our ferritic products provide a solution to your present and future concerns. We wish to be recognised as the market reference for ferritic steels. It is in this spirit that we are launching the new brand for ferritic solutions: KARA.
To pursue our international expansion through our distribution network and the development of a holistic offer.
For example, on 18 October 2007 we inaugurated our new service centre in Poland: ArcelorMittal Siemianowice Slaskie.

To be the benchmark in the development of human resources.
Because the quality of our products depends on the quality of our personnel, in 2007 we deployed a top management performance management system in the production shops. 2008 will see the intensification of the training of our sales network.
To cultivate an entrepreneurial mentality in which responsiveness, flexibility and sustainability are the watchwords of our daily activity.
This initiative, which is accompanied by the development of competencies and a sustained training exercise, enables each individual to be personally involved in the company's development, but also motivates each employee to play an active part in his or her future.

To promote operational excellence in terms of: industrial performance, competitiveness, the safety of our employees and the quality of our products and services.
For example, we enhance the quality of our products and the performance of our processes in order to increase the reliability of the production facility. Through continuous improvement management, we are implementing quality programmes such as TPM (Total Productive Maintenance).
Moreover, we are making clear commitments in respect of health, safety and the environment. For further information: visit the Commitments section.
