LONDON, Oct. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Harsco Environmental, a division of Enviri Corporation (NYSE: NVRI) and a global leader in providing innovative environmental solutions, announced it has signed a 15-year, $150 million contract with Jindal Stainless, the largest stainless steel producer in India. This renewed agreement will expand Harsco Environmental’s operations in Jajpur, Odisha, India, to process additional stainless steel slag from Jindal Stainless’ expanded operations, furthering the division’s relationship with the company that began in 2015.

“This expanded partnership with Jindal Stainless represents a significant step in our shared journey toward transforming the stainless steel industry with sustainable solutions,” said Harsco Environmental President Christophe Reitemeier. “By working together, we are advancing our operational footprint, contributing to the local economy, and empowering the community with new opportunities, all while driving meaningful environmental impact. With this new contract, Harsco Environmental continues to grow with the industry and is well on course to double its business in India by 2028, marking a five-year period.”

“As we expand capacity to meet the rising stainless steel demand in India and globally, our focus remains strongly on doing so responsibly and in an environmentally conscious way. We are strengthening our partnership with Harsco Environmental, an organisation that shares our commitment to circularity in stainless steel production. The upcoming wet milling plant, with its benchmark metal recovery and waste management, will enable gainful utilisation of slag and create new opportunities for the communities where we operate,” said Jindal Stainless Managing Director, Mr. Abhyuday Jindal.

The contract includes the following components: an extension of the existing agreement to process stainless steel slag for another 10 years, and the construction of an additional wet milling plant to support Jindal Stainless’ expansion of stainless steel operations. Harsco Environmental will operate the wet milling plant, the only one of its kind in India, which will handle hot slag and recover metal from waste products.

The new and expanded capabilities are expected to create approximately 140 new jobs in the region.
