The International Iron and Steel Institute (IISI) aims to establish steel as a major foundation of a sustainable world. For the world steel industry this means valuing the interdependence of environmental, social and economic aspects in all decision making, with the aim of improving life for everyone, now, and for generations to come. IISI was founded in 1967. It is a non-profit research organisation with headquarters in Brussels, Belgium. IISI is one of the largest and most dynamic industry associations and serves as a world forum for the international steel industry. A sustainable world steel industry could not be achieved without the active participation of IISI's membership. IISI currently has a membership of more than 115 steel producing companies and over 60 national and regional steel federations and steel research organisations. The members come from more than 50 countries around the world. The countries in which IISI member companies are located account for over three-quarters of total world steel production. Nearly all the world's major steel producers are members of the Institute. Both publicly and privately owned enterprises, using both basic oxygen or electric arc process routes, are members. |
