Sandellsandberg arkitekter chose GreenCoat® specifically for its color consistency as well as strong resistance to corrosion, UV radiation and scratches, which will help ensure a building that lasts for many generations. Their decision also came down to sustainability.
The highly recognized World Architecture Festival (WAF) has taken notice and shortlisted Lilla Integralen for its WAF Award 2019 in the category “Completed Buildings: Housing”. Lilla Integralen was also one of five buildings nominated for the Plåtpriset 2019.
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® color coated steel and care for the product lifecycle.
As opposed to conventional coating formulas, the bio-based solvent becomes a permanent part of the final coating, making for a healthier environment and reducing the release of harmful substances into the air.
The unique BT coating holds a worldwide patent and offers not only environmental advantages, but also increased performance. The GreenCoat® color coated product portfolio is currently the market’s greenest offering for roofs, façades and rainwater systems.
SSAB is the pioneer and innovator in creating a color coated product offer for roofing, façades and rainwater systems having a bio-based content in the coating. Within the new product portfolio, most GreenCoat® products feature a Bio-based Technology (BT) coating where a substantial portion of the traditional fossil oil is replaced by Swedish rapeseed oil. This unique, patented solution by SSAB reduces the environmental footprint significantly.
