Allow us to reintroduce ourselves. We are Algoma Steel Inc.

Welcome to the all-new Algoma Steel Inc.!

As of November 30th, 2018, Algoma Steel Inc. purchased substantially all of the assets of Essar Steel Algoma Inc. Today we are stronger, more sustainable, and free from the protection of the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA).

Algoma Steel is now privately owned by a solid group of investors who are committed to Algoma and believe in our plan. To achieve that plan, we are governed by a professional board of directors with a wide range of expertise in the fields of steel, finance and manufacturing.

We’re hiring! We have already hired more than 240 people in the first six months of 2018 and there will be more to come. We are in search of good people — skilled trades, professionals, and workers who will embrace digitization as we transition to a true SMART mill. If you know of a worthy candidate, please invite them to explore the current opportunities posted under the Careers tab on our website.

Algoma Steel will further be investing $300 million to modernize our facilities, expand capacity and enhance grade capability, making Algoma Steel more efficient and globally competitive. More details will follow on these capital projects in the weeks ahead. Stay tuned.

Algoma Steel has been an integral part of Sault Ste. Marie since 1901, and we are excited to once again be in a position to be a proud contributor in this community.

We thank you for your continued support of Algoma Steel and we look forward to forging a stronger future with you.

About Algoma Steel Group Inc.

Based in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Algoma is a leading Canadian producer of high-quality plate and sheet steel products, proudly supporting critical sectors including energy, defense, automotive, shipbuilding, and infrastructure. Guided by a purpose to build better lives and a greener future, Algoma is shaping the next generation of sustainable steelmaking in Canada.

With the transition to electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking and a modernized plate mill, Algoma is redefining how steel is made in Canada. Powered by Ontario’s clean electricity grid, this transformation represents one of the largest industrial decarbonization initiatives in North America and is expected to reduce carbon emissions by approximately 70% once fully transitioned. These advancements provide stability for continued investment in diversification projects aligned with Canada’s evolving needs.

This new chapter also introduces Volta™, the brand for all steel produced through Algoma’s EAF technology. Volta delivers the same trusted performance customers rely on, with significantly lower emissions—produced safely, sustainably, and proudly in Canada.

Building on more than a century of steelmaking expertise, Algoma continues to invest in its people, processes, and technologies to strengthen domestic supply chains and deliver responsible, Canadian-made steel that helps build a better tomorrow.
