Steel is a product that is 100% recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly material. The average 2,000 sq. ft. home uses 50-60 old growth trees. The same home built with steel uses 6 scrapped cars. Steel is recognized by The Healthy House Institute as the framing material of choice due to the fact that it does not contain resins or other chemicals found in other framing materials. Also, steel does not give out gas as other materials do. Steel's environmental benefits make it the building material that our kids can be proud of. Steel is the most recycled product on earth today. |
