                    SAS Whitepaper Low Embodied Carbon Steel

                    Advancements in Low Embodied Carbon Steel for Sustainable Construction

                    ABSTRACT

                    This publication explores how global steel producers are finding new ways to make steel with a lower carbon footprint. It explores the features of metal and production, current challenges, and benefits for construction.

                    Additionally, it introduces SAS International's SAS Horizon programme, which uses the latest innovations in steel production and its own design and manufacturing innovations to provide a low embodied carbon metal ceiling products.

                    INTRODUCTION

                    Steel producers worldwide are at the forefront of innovation, changing the story of a material known for high carbon emissions. Historically linked with significant environmental impact in construction, alongside materials like concrete and glass, steel is now undergoing a positive transformation.

                    The use of electric arc furnaces powered by renewable energy to create 'low embodied carbon' steel presents a solution that aligns with sustainability goals, breaking from traditional practices. This initiative not only brings a durable material with various benefits to construction but also tackles longstanding environmental issues in the steel industry, fundamentally reshaping the nature of construction materials.
