Recycling of Metal Roofing and Siding Panels

Metal roofing and siding panels are made with the most recyclable materials on Earth, making them a great choice for building materials now and for future generations. An old car, clothes washer, or soup can, may become part of a new metal roof! Some states are mandating energy saving requirements for buildings or giving tax breaks for energy efficient and energy saving construction products. Since recycling saves much of the energy required to produce metal products, their recycled content is also being recognized and rewarded. So recycling is done for economic and environmental reasons.
