News: The U.S. Green Building Council LEED
program is an internationally recognized green building certification
system, providing third‐party verification that a building was designed and
built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics
that matter most, including stewardship of resources and sensitivity to
their impacts. Concept Frames is concerned about our impact on the
environment and can help you with your LEED projects.
Our steel vendors have prepared the following information
to help calculate the recycled content of the steel for products being used
in "Green Building" applications or for projects in the LEED®
program. Percentages are approximate and based on the total weight of the
products. Calculations are based on 2008 scrap steel delivered and finished
materials produced and are defined in accordance with ISO 14021:1999.
Materials and Resources: Recycled Content of Steel used in Doors and Frames
| Total Recycled Content |
Total Post Consumer Recycled Content |
Total Pre‐Consumer (Post Industrial) Recycled Content |
| 61.20% |
53.20% |
8.00% |
Steel doors and frames manufactured by Concept Frames are made up
primarily by sheet steel that meets the recycled figures above. A minor portion of the product weight consists of components such as reinforcements and light kits that are purchased from domestic manufacturers and will vary depending on the project requirements.
Materials and Resources: Regional
Materials
Concept Frames manufacturers all door and frames in Newton, NC 28658. The
amount of scrap extracted from any project site
region for steel being used for door and frames in "Green Building"
applications or for projects in the LEED® program can be approximated.
