Circular Economy

The path to sustainability concerns not only production but the entire ESG chain.


It leads to the careful use of resources in the manufacturing process, through to the utilisation of a building, the associated costs and beyond to dismantling and recycling. The circular economy (Re-Duce, Re-Use, Re-cycle) saves resources.

Steel is the most circular building material in the world. Up to 95% of steel as a building material is recycled. At Unger, we also offer the processing of CO2 reduced steel. This makes it possible to reduce the carbon footprint by up to approx. 70 %.

Value engineering makes it possible to reduce steel masses by using higher steel grades, thereby also reducing CO2 and costs.
