Recycled Steel content
Total Recycled = 23% Post-Industrial = 85% Post-Consumer = 6%
What the above means is that of the 23% total recycled content of our product, 85% is post-industrial content, and 6% is post-consumer content.
All dock equipment (including restraints) is accredited for MR Credit 4 (Recycled Content) and MR Credit 5 (Regional Materials), which means that steel is brought to our manufacturing facility from less than 500 miles away.
All dock levelers are accredited for EA Pre-Req 2 (Minimal Energy Performance) because of their hydraulic or air powered lips. Mechanical levelers are additionally accredited for EA Credit 1 (Optimized Energy Performance).
All dock seals are accredited for EA Pre-Req 2 (Minimal Energy Performance) and EA Credit 1 (Optimized Energy Performance).
Vertical storing dock levelers achieve both MR Credit 4 and MR Credit 5 as well as EA Pre-Req 2 and EA Credit 1. When paired with an inflatable dock seal, the vertical storing dock leveler is an excellent choice when quoting LEED certified projects.
