Van Leeuwen Impact: our brand vor pipes and tubes made of CO2 reduced steel

An essential next step in the development of our family-owned business and our sector

The steel industry accounts for 7-9% of the global CO2 emissions. Therefore, small improvements already have a huge impact for our environment. As a family-owned company, Van Leeuwen takes responsibility for the environment and society to ensure a sustainable future of our company and the world. This is integrated in our strategy. As market leader, we take the lead in setting the standard for more sustainable steel products to help our customers reduce their CO2 footprint.

To achieve this, we work together with innovative steel mills who have the same mission, in order to improve the sustainability of production processes and end products together. This results in building a stock of CO2 reduced pipe and tube material, which we sell under our own sustainability brand Van Leeuwen Impact.

How is CO2 reduction achieved?

Mills can take one or more of  the CO2 reducing measures mentioned below:

  • Use a large amount of scrap to produce the steel
  • Melt the scrap in electric arc furnaces fed by renewable energy like wind and solar.
  • Use transport by sea or railroad as mucn as possible
  • For transport by road, use electric trucks or trucks driving on biodiesel such as HVO100

How are the emission reductions documented?

 

The steel mills offer so called EPD's: Environmental Product Declarations. These certificates are verified by independent bodied. You receive the EPD with your order, as guarantee of the lower environmental impact of the product during its whole life cycle.
