The GreenIron Story
1971
In the late 1960s, Hans Murray, the originator of GreenIron's technology, began his research into the recycling of materials containing steel and iron. In 1971, Hans and his team succeeded in producing their first CO₂ free metal product from recycled residues in a hydrogen furnace. However, there was little interest in recycling and CO₂ free metallic materials and the project was cancelled.
2018
After the adoption of the Paris Agreement in 2015, Hans, together with his son Edward, revitalised the project. GreenIron was founded in 2018 and the work began to develop the technology fand process from earlier, start filing for patents, fundraising and build up a new company.
