In 2008, soon after the Tecucel River in Romania flooded and destroyed more than 300 homes, the ArcelorMittal Foundation formed a global partnership with Habitat for Humanity to improve affected families’ lives. In partnership with Habitat for Humanity, ArcelorMittal adapted a Habitat for Humanity house design into a light steel frame housing solution that is affordable, durable and environmentally friendly and could also be transferrable to other countries around the world – enabling ArcelorMittal to enter into the low-cost housing construction market.
