BENEFITS OF PRE-FINISHED STEEL CLADDING SYSTEMS
Green Guide rating
Updated in 2008, the Green Guide gives a rating for a range of specifications of major elements of different buildings types. Specifications are rated on a scale of A+ (best) to E (worst). All our pre- finished steel cladding systems achieve a Green Guide A+ rating. The manufacture and processing of Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat Prisma® into building envelope products, through our approved supply chain, can maximise credits assessed through BREEAM.

Ratings taken from the Green Guide to Specification 2008 38 Rating On-site waste
For engineered steel cladding systems, there is virtually zero on-site construction waste. Any site steel waste is either re-used or recycled, meaning it does not go to landfill. Customers make significant cost savings as a result of efficient waste management practices. Benefits include:
Cladding systems manufactured using Colorcoat® pre-finished steel are manufactured off-site which means site waste is minimal. For many products, it is virtually zero
The use of our supply chain partners’ roof and wall cladding systems using Colorcoat® pre- finished steel makes a significant contribution to achieving maximum BREEAM waste credits
The value of scrap steel and inherent multi- cyclability of steel ensures steel construction projects are highly recycled during manufacture, construction or following demolition. This minimises any material being diverted to landfill
A+
The high reuse/recycle rate of steel reduces the landfill cost of waste material associated with a project.
