PROTEA | Made of safe, sustainable steel The advantages of steel are numerous and make it an ideal building material. Steel, a material coming from nature: Iron ore, its raw material, is one of Earth’s most abundant elements. Steel is sustainable, durable and solid: Today, steel can be effectively protected against corrosion, particularly through the galvanisation process. Sandwich panels recycling process: Different studies show that technical solutions to recover steel in buildings and to transform it in high quality scrap exist. Sandwich panels Rotary shear Magnetic drum Steel is clean; its manufacturing process as well: Steelworks have cut steel manufacturing’s energy consumption and CO 2 emissions by half compared with 1960 levels. Steel is recyclable and recycled Steel is indefinitely and 100% recyclable. More than 40% of the world steel production comes from recycled steel. Scrap metal PUR foam flakes Steel reduces building site noise pollution and makes for clean and safe construction: Prefabricated materials are delivered, minimising waste and onsite storage and making building sites safe, dry and dust-free. Steel is earthquake-resistant: Steel increases building longevity in earthquake-prone areas and preserves human life through its resistance. The goal is to separate steel from polyurethane foam in such a way that each component will be pure enough to be easily recycled in its own process. Two different tools exist: a shredder commonly used to process end of life vehicles or household appliances, and a rotary shear commonly used to shred steel packaging. However, reusing the sandwich panels at the end of the house life could be a much simpler and cheaper solution of recycling.
