GreenCoat® color coated steel test

Today, the lifecycle perspective of products has become more and more important. As a result, documents need to give information addressing the lifecycle phases, product contents as well as the production and how to best recycle or re-use materials.

We provide EPDs for GreenCoat^® color coated steel and our low-emission steel color coated steel with SSAB Zero™. The EPDs are available to give you details about how we produce color coated steel and care for the product lifecycle.

The fossil carbon emissions in SSAB’s production of SSAB Zero™ are less than 0.05 kg CO₂e/kg steel in Scope 1 and 2 of the GHG Protocol.

GreenCoat PLX products from SSAB were developed together with tinsmiths and have become “The Roofer’s Choice”. They are highly formable, can be installed year-round, and offer a 50-year technical guarantee. Carl Cross, from Zinc and Copper Roofing Ltd (UK), has installed GreenCoat PLX on a roof and shares his thoughts with us.

Long product life plays an important role when specifying building materials. The new UV (Ruv5) and RC corrosion (RC5+) classes from the new standard EN10169:2022 ensure that building products have an extremely long product life, which has already been confirmed by SSAB’s GreenCoat^® guarantees. You will find the Ruv and RC classes in the technical datasheet of our GreenCoat^® products.
