and other architectural applications. Made
primarily from recycled material, CMR’s
products are also designed to last the life of
a building – without finish deterioration.
Even when the building is eventually torn
down, the intrinsic value of stainless steel
and titanium components makes them likely
candidates for further recycling.
There’s no degradation in quality
from recycling and re-melting stainless steel
parts,” Halliday says. “There’s no limit to a
downstream application of stainless steel.”
As a result, stainless steel designs have a low
environmental impact and generate long
term value to the building owner.
