Carbon Neutrality Goal
Steel manufacturers collaborate to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
- Use electric arc furnace (EAF) technology with recycled ferrous scrap as the primary input
- Implement low-waste pre-coat processes with lead-free paints designed to extend product life
- Optimize delivery routes based on data-driven insights, prioritizing rail over trucking to minimize emissions
- Promote a circular economy where products and materials are recycled infinitely without loss of quality
70°F Cooling
Attic Temperature Reduction
Cool-roof coatings can reduce attic temperatures, contributing to energy efficiency and sustainability.
7x Efficiency
Rail vs Truck Emissions
Rail shipments are significantly more greenhouse gas-efficient than trucking, aiding in reducing carbon emissions.
