Colours GreenCoat® Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
Most GreenCoat® products use a coating where Swedish rapeseed oil and other renewable raw materials are used. SSAB has long experience of Bio-based Technology (BT) in GreenCoat® products.
This solution from SSAB reduces the environmental footprint and makes the GreenCoat® product portfolio a sustainable option for roofs, façades and rainwater systems.
SSAB is a member of the joint venture HYBRIT project, which aims to revolutionize the steel industry with fossil-free steel by 2026.
The result will be unique: the world’s first fossil-free steel making technology, with virtually no carbon footprint. The by-product from steel making process would be water, not carbon dioxide.
Today, the lifecycle perspective of products has become more and more important. As a result, documents need to give information addressing the lifecycle phases, product contents as well as the production and how to best recycle or re-use materials.
The GreenCoat® EPD is available to give you details about how we produce GreenCoat® colour coated steel and care for the product lifecycle.
From common trends to vibrant tones and exclusive finishes, GreenCoat® products are available in a wide range of colours. Each has been carefully selected based on modern building and design trends.
Over 10,000 panels of GreenCoat® colour coated steel have been exposed year-round to harsh climates and conditions, including saltwater, snow, ice, rain, UV-radiation, high humidity, wind and storm to ensure the highest product performance.
Long product life plays an important role when specifying building materials. The new UV (Ruv5) and RC corrosion (RC5+) classes from the new standard EN10169:2022 ensure that building products have an extremely long product life, which has already been confirmed by SSAB’s GreenCoat® guarantees. You will find the Ruv and RC classes in the technical datasheet of our GreenCoat® products.
GreenCoat PLX products from SSAB were developed together with tinsmiths and have become “The Roofer’s Choice”. They are highly formable, can be installed year-round, and offer a 50-year technical guarantee. Carl Cross, from Zinc and Copper Roofing Ltd (UK), has installed GreenCoat PLX on a roof and shares his thoughts with us.
