Teclab’s Green Initiative

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.

Teclab's Green Initiative

Steel

Steel is the most recycled material on the planet.

Heavy-duty cold rolled steel is used throughout every Teclab product.

All scrap steel is collected during production and recycled.

Steel production, based on recycling, uses less energy and material resources.

Stainless Steel

Many Teclab items are available in Stainless Steel.

50% of new stainless steel comes from re-melted stainless steel scrap.

Stainless Steel products can be fully recycled after a useful life.
