Steel Is Green

“Steel yourself” for the future is an old idea that is taking on new meaning.

Steel Is Green



Steel is the #1 recycled material. There is more steel recycled every year than aluminum, plastic and glass combined. Each year approximately 10 million vehicles are recycled (enough to circle the earth about 1 and 1/2 times). Each ton of recycled steel saves 1400 lbs. of coal and 2500 lbs. of iron ore (with 98% of mined ore used for making steel). And every year the recycling of steel saves the energy equivalent of electrically powering 1 out of 5 US households for one year.



Why Build With Light Gauge Steel?

Steel is Fire Resistant: Steel is stronger. More than twenty times stronger than wood. Steel is straighter, stronger, safer.



Steel Avoids Mold: Building demands in the last 20 years have led to increased levels of sugar in lumber supplies, creating a diminished quality of wood that promotes an increase of mold problems in new homes. Hard to avoid moisture when you build on the open/on-site. One-third to one-half of all structures have damp conditions that may encourage the development of mold. Source: U.S. EPA Eliminates outside air infiltration, leaks, drafts, dust, and quiet.



Lower Maintenance Costs: Steel has lower maintenance costs. Experience substantial savings over long term. Less expensive because steel can save up to 60% on utility costs.. You will save more than $100,000.

A WORLD OF VERSATILITY Light Cold formed steel construction and processes are increasingly used by building companies all around the world, the versatile nature of cold-formed steel and the SMARTHOUSE system allows the rapid and effective construction of mid-rise and residential buildings, warehousing, commercial buildings, façades, modular buildings, pods and more.



The SMARTHOUSE System unlocks the ability to design and construct web joists, trusses, structural framing, and internal partitioning suitable for a diverse range of construction types.



Because of the time saving and quality assurance gained by implementing cold-formed steel across a wide selection of applications, its obvious why SMARTHOUSE is The Way the World Constructs .
