BlueScope Releases Product Sustainability Brochures for TRUECORE® steel and COLORBOND® steel

BlueScope has published a series of Product Sustainability Brochures, providing sustainability information for their leading products by application: COLORBOND® steel for roofing and walling, COLORBOND® steel for fencing, and TRUECORE® steel light gauge steel framing. The brochures are a handy resource for developers, specifiers and other industry professionals, offering insights into BlueScope's sustainability credentials and initiatives.

The brochures cover various sustainability topics including circular thinking and resilience, embodied carbon and climate action, credentials and certifications, resource efficiency and Green Star ratings. They also provide an overview of BlueScope’s broader sustainability efforts and goals, including the company's drive towards a net zero GHG emissions by 2050 goal1, with progress targets established for 20302.

Each brochure is a useful reference when considering material selection. The information in the brochures not only highlights BlueScope's commitment to sustainability, but also helps developers to make knowledgeable choices that align with their sustainability objectives and market expectations.

This suite of Product Sustainability Brochures complements the information available in BlueScope's Environmental Product Declarations, which can also be downloaded.

    BlueScope - September 2024

    Footnotes:

    1. Our net zero goal covers BlueScope’s scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions across our operations. We acknowledge that achieving this goal is highly dependent on several enablers, including the development and diffusion of ironmaking technologies to viable and commercial scale; access to appropriate quality and sufficient quantities of economic raw materials; access to internationally cost-competitive, firmed large-scale renewable energy; availability of competitively priced green hydrogen, with natural gas enabling the transition to green hydrogen; and supportive and consistent policy policies across all of these enablers to underpin decarbonisation.
       
    2. Applies to BlueScope’s 1 and 2 emissions, relative to a 2018 baseline, across their steelmaking and non-steelmaking activities. The non-steelmaking target applies to our midstream activities that include our cold rolled, metal coating and painting lines and long and hollow products. It excludes our downstream activities.
