Keeping our environment safe is now a concern that many businesses and industries face on a global scale. The old days of large industrial businesses dumping nasty contaminants into the earth needs to stop and here at Brown Metals Company we are doing everything within our power to ensure our products are produced in an environmentally friendly way. Here are a few excellent examples.
Conflict Minerals
Industrial materials are often made from valuable minerals that come from specific geographic locations all over the world. Many of these locations are in third world countries where local governments force citizens to work in hazardous and dangerous conditions. Some of these citizens are forced to work at gun point and amid death threats.
Our products come direct from manufacturers who have stated all of their products are free from conflict minerals. Our official statement on this matter can be found at the following location:

Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and restriction of Chemicals (REACH)
The European Union has developed legislative framework to help manage the risks associated with chemicals that may pose threat to human health and the environment. Our vendors have indicated to us that our products do not contain any significant amounts of chemical compounds. Our official statement on this matter can be found here:

Recyclable Materials
Recycling has taken the world by storm and it has helped all of us re-use certain materials time and time again. The old method of stuffing these materials into a large landfill are long gone. Many of the materials we bring to our customers are indeed recyclable. Our stainless steel products are 100% recyclable!
These are the few ways we are doing everything within our power to ensure our products are environmentally friendly!
