The Green and Economical Choice

The Green Choice

• 100% Recyclable - it can be re-used by being melted down and re-cycled. 90% of stainless steel products are produced from recycled scrap metal.
• Clean production - in the production of stainless steel fittings, there are no plating or coating processes which create environmental hazards, as can happen with other metals.
• Green buildings - glass facades using stainless steel support systems reduce heating/cooling energy requirements in modern buildings.

The Economical Choice

Although stainless steel may cost more initially, when comparing the length of its useful life and its other properties, it is more cost-effective than alternatives. For example, it is more corrosion-resistant than carbon steel, galvanized steel, and longer lasting and is stronger than polymer products, like GRP.

The overall Life Cycle Cost of stainless steel makes it the smart choice.
