Steel Structures for Boliden’s Odda Zinc Smelter

In 2021-2024, Boliden expanded the world’s most climate effective zinc smelter in Odda, southern Norway. The expansion enabled Odda to almost double the zinc production and at the same time reducing the carbon dioxide intensity by 15 percent from already a world leading position, according to the company.

Most of the facilities were expanded while the company also modernised processes, increasing digitisation and automation and expanded the unique waste handling solution. On commission from Metso Outotec, Maru Metall manufactured 336 tonnes of structural steel for the project.
