Reusing metal is a huge part of the circular economy! Helping to conserve natural resources, reduces energy consumption, and minimises environmental damage from mining. Recycling metal reduce, and metals like such as steel can be recycled repeatedly without losing their properties, making them incredibly valuable resource.
Additionally, recycling steel reduces the need for mining iron ore and coal—two processes that contribute heavily to greenhouse gas emissions. By reusing scrap steel, we cut down on energy use and emissions while conserving natural resources.
Reusing steel is a powerful way to cut carbon emissions! The production of virgin steel is incredibly energy-intensive and releases a significant amount of CO2. However, reusing steel uses 75% less energy and can reduce CO2 by 90% than making new steel from raw materials, dramatically lowering its carbon footprint.
Branding is incredibly important part of how potential customers perceive a business. A strong brand helps build recognition, trust, and loyalty among customers. It differentiates a company from competitors, creates emotional connections, and influences purchasing decisions.
Branding isn’t just about logos and colours—it’s about the overall identity, values, and messaging that make a business stand out. Utilising all your assets such as waste containers to advertise your brand is great tool. Especially as they are often onsite for long periods. A well-maintained container can acts as a bill board displaying your brand and vital contact details.
