Marcegaglia takes center stage at Made in Steel 2025 with a visual manifesto of its core values: future, innovation, and beauty come together in an experience that tells the story of steel through a fresh perspective.

A glance into the FUTURE

“We innovate today to build tomorrow.” Technology, efficiency, and sustainability are the pillars of Marcegaglia’s strategic vision to tackle the challenges of the future. Looking ahead, the goal is to anticipate the changes that will profoundly transform the steel industry. But innovation is not only about technology — for Marcegaglia, it also means fostering a corporate culture that is open, inclusive, and attentive to the value of people and gender equality.

A conversation that introduces “Acciaio al femminile”, the Siderweb project dedicated to gender equality and female empowerment within one of the most traditional sectors of Italian manufacturing: the steel industry. Interviews conducted for the project have been compiled into a book written by Francesca Morandi and published by Il Sole 24 ORE, which will be presented during the event—along with the exclusive preview screening of the accompanying docufilm.

INNOVATION That Leaves a Mark

Marcegaglia is also at the forefront of innovation, thanks to continuous investments in technologies aimed at producing increasingly sustainable steel. In this context, the AdriatiCO_₂ project was launched, led by Marcegaglia and selected to receive funding under the European Union’s Innovation Fund. The project aims to position Ravenna as a strategic hub for achieving decarbonization targets by capturing 110,000 tons of CO₂ and preventing its release into the environment.

BEAUTY That Inspire

Marcegaglia presents an unconventional booth, designed by star architect Simone Micheli, creatively interpreting “The Beauty of Steel”, the main theme of the event. A project where aesthetics meet substance, enriched by graphic works by the architect himself, created with the innovative Cromatica-Marcegaglia Steel technology.

Just steps from the booth is the Cromatica Space, a gallery showcasing creations made with Cromatica steel, which also hosts the Cromatica Talks — three must-see events blending architecture, design, and color.
