Original Press Release:
Briteline Extrusions Getting Greener!
Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - Summerville, SC based Briteline Extrusions has announced they now offer recycled aluminum billets for their extrusion customers who request this "green" feature.
President Kenneth Kabine said "We have always prided ourselves on using primary aluminum billet to produce flawless finishes on the shower door and brite anodized trim parts we make. Now, we are seeing a strong demand from the building industry for their extrusions to be made with secondary billet." Architects are specifying the use of aluminum extrusions to qualify for the L.E.E.D. certification. (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.)
Aluminum is green and a natural fit for the building industry. Whether we are making extrusions for lights, displays, doors, shelves, frames or signs, our customers know they are working with an environmentally friendly material. By adding secondary aluminum to our billet inventory, we can assure customers that
we can meet their L.E.E.D. certification requirements.
We recycle over one million pounds of aluminum scrap from our extrusion process each year. Aluminum can be recycled and reused over and over without losing any of its characteristic attributes. There is no loss of quality in using recycled aluminum.
