Eco-Friendly Steel Walkway Grating: 85% Recycled Material, ISO 14001-Certified
Engineered for global industries prioritizing sustainability, our Eco-Friendly Steel Walkway Grating combines environmental responsibility with industrial durability. Composed of 85% post-industrial recycled steel and certified to ISO 14001 environmental management standards, this grating delivers a 35% lower carbon footprint than traditional steel solutions. The hot-dip galvanized coating (85μm zinc layer) ensures 50+ years of corrosion resistance, while the serrated anti-slip surface (R13 rating) meets safety standards in wet, oily, or high-traffic environments. Ideal for LEED/BREEAM-certified projects, ports, renewable energy plants, and industrial facilities seeking green compliance.

- Recycled Steel Sourcing:
- 85% of steel originates from post-industrial scrap (e.g., automotive parts, construction waste), sorted via magnetic separation and X-ray fluorescence to ensure purity.
- Eco-Galvanization:
- Chromium-free trivalent passivation (RoHS compliant) replaces hazardous hexavalent chromium, reducing wastewater toxicity by 90%.
- Zinc coating thickness controlled via automated electroplating (85μm standard, 275g/m² for marine applications).
- Modular Fabrication:
- CNC punching and cutting for precise mesh apertures (30×100mm standard), with serrated edges formed by cold-rolling (3mm height, 60° angle).
- Sustainability Controls:
- Energy-efficient induction furnaces reduce electricity use by 22%; 90% of process water recycled through reverse osmosis systems.
-
ESG Compliance at Scale:
-
Recycled content reduces raw material demand, aligning with circular economy targets (e.g., UK Waste Strategy 2025).
-
Performance Parity with Traditional Grating:
- Load capacity matches virgin steel solutions.
- Anti-slip rating exceeds OSHA 1910.29 requirements for industrial walkways.
-
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Savings:
- 20% lower lifecycle cost vs. non-recycled grating (15-year warranty, minimal maintenance).
- Higher scrap value at end-of-life (25% more than traditional steel due to certified recyclability).
- Renewable Energy:
- Solar farm access roads, wind turbine maintenance platforms
- Marine & Ports:
- Coastal dock walkways (275g/m² Zn-Al coating resists saltwater), cruise ship decks
- Industrial Facilities:
- Food processing plants (FDA-compliant epoxy finish), chemical plant catwalks
- Urban Infrastructure:
- LEED-certified commercial building mezzanines, railway station footbridges
Q1: How is recycled steel quality ensured?
A: Recycled steel undergoes 3-stage testing (chemical composition, tensile strength, impact resistance) to meet Q235B standards (ISO 683-1/14).
Q2: Can this grating be used in offshore environments?
A: Yes. For offshore use, we offer 275g/m² Zn-Al coating (NACE MR0175 compliant), tested to 5,000-hour salt spray.
Q3: What is the lead time for eco-certified orders?
A: Standard lead time: 15 working days.
