Environmental/LEED Statement - Inline Design
In the production of stainless steel, scrap metal may serve as a primary raw material, with up to 70% of the product coming from recycled sources. Increased efficiency in the process technology has also reduced the amount of energy required to manufacture stainless steel. Even if stainless steel is not recycled and finds its way to a landfill or disposal site, it will have no detrimental effect to the soil or groundwater. |
Stainless Steel is the preferred material for green buildings throughout the world because its impact on the environment is minimal when compared to other materials. Furthermore, stainless steel’s life cycle increases significantly as it used and recycled. |
