Steel-framed Buildings - Eco-Friendly?
Whether you need a steel-framed building for farm, equestrian or industrial use, you can be assured that by choosing steel-framed you’re still being kind to the environment.
Steel-framed buildings are more eco-friendly than you might think. One of the main reasons is that steel has a very high recycling rate.
Did you know that steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world? Recycled steel is actually cheaper and uses fewer natural resources than it does to make new steel from raw iron ore.
EU figures also show that using recycled raw materials, including metals, cuts CO2 emissions by some 200 million tonnes CO2 emission reduction every year.
Importantly, steel doesn’t lose any of its physical properties during the recycling process. And because steel-framed buildings are made to precise sizes, there is very little waste steel.
Constructing steel-framed buildings is also quick and simple. Many of the components of our steel-framed buildings are pre-made in our factory to exact measurements, meaning less time spent on-site erecting the building and therefore lower costs for you.
Finished steel-framed buildings are also very well insulated, as well as durable and long-lasting, so over the years your energy savings can be significant. Plus your new steel-framed building is easily adaptable, again saving on any costs and emissions associated with having to build a completely new structure. If you want to add more space, steel-framed buildings are one of the easiest and simplest types to modify, with short build times and cheaper costs.
Our team of dedicated installers at Graham Heath Construction can have your new steel-framed building finished and ready to use in a matter of weeks. Or, if you wish, you can erect the building yourself. All Graham Heath Construction steel-framed buildings are provided with everything you need to get the job done, and it’s all delivered to your door.
