Teclab's commitment to environmental sustainability begins with an energy efficient manufacturing process. One that keeps waste to a minimum and an emphasis on recycling.
Starting with recycled steel as a raw material and using solvent free powder coatings, Teclab seeks the most environmentally responsible manufacturing process available.
Our long product life cycle not only gives our customers excellent value but also lessens our impact on the environment.
Here are some other ways Teclab has gone green.
Steel is the most recycled material in the world and can be recycled repeatedly without losing its strength, durability, or performance characteristics.
Heavy-duty cold rolled steel is used throughout Teclab's product line to provide long-term durability and structural integrity in demanding laboratory, technical, and industrial environments.
All steel scrap generated during manufacturing is collected, separated, and recycled, helping reduce waste and conserve valuable natural resources.
The use of recycled steel in new steel production significantly reduces energy consumption, raw material requirements, and environmental impact compared to producing steel entirely from virgin materials.
Because steel products retain their value throughout their lifecycle, Teclab workstations and cabinets contribute to a circular manufacturing process where materials can be recovered and reused at the end of their service life.
Steel's exceptional longevity also promotes sustainability by reducing the need for frequent replacement, helping organizations realize long-term environmental and economic benefits.
Many Teclab products are available in stainless steel for applications requiring superior corrosion resistance, cleanliness, and durability.
Approximately 50% of new stainless steel is produced from remelted stainless steel scrap, helping conserve natural resources and reduce environmental impact.
Stainless steel can be recycled repeatedly without degrading its physical properties, making it one of the most sustainable materials used in laboratory furniture and equipment.
At the end of its useful life, stainless steel can be fully recovered and reprocessed into new stainless steel products, supporting a closed-loop recycling cycle.
The exceptional lifespan and corrosion resistance of stainless steel help reduce maintenance requirements and replacement frequency, further contributing to sustainability goals.
By incorporating recyclable stainless steel materials into its product offerings, Teclab helps customers create durable, environmentally responsible laboratory and technical workspaces designed for decades of reliable service.
