To Whom It May Concern: Re: Regional Sourcing of Steelmaking Raw Materials per LEED Canada Requirements The LEED Canada rating system specifically states under the “Materials and Resources” category that building materials must meet one of the following requirements:
I can confirm that the steel scrap and limestone purchases required for steelmaking operations meet both these regional requirements, and that our coal and iron ore purchases, which arrive by rail and ship, meet the second requirement. This makes Metal Door’s construction steels eligible for credits under the LEED Canada Green Building Rating System. All of Metal Door’s products are manufactured in Gormley, ON, Canada. All material is extracted from Hamilton, ON, Canada. Metal Door’s mode of transportation for its product is by enclosed transport truck.
