3 . LYSAGHT® Fencing Provides Sanitary Solution |
A
young Australian company is putting a LYSAGHT®
fencing product to a novel use, with its new range
of environmentally friendly E-HUTS. The E-HUT
or "Environmental Hut" was developed for Enviro
Options, who specialise in the supply of a unique
compost toilet system. See why BlueScope Lysaght

4 . Rain Water Tanks - Life Cycle Analysis |
An
independent study, conducted by the Centre for
Sustainable Technology at the University of Newcastle,
has compared three types of rainwater tanks -
plastic, steel and concrete - using the Life Cycle
Analysis (LCA) approach. The full details of this
study are now available from our website at:

5 . Airport Takes Off With BlueScope Lysaght
And XLERPLATE® |
Construction
on Australia's newest and most efficient airport
passenger terminal is off to a flying start, with
the help of established Adelaide based steel fabricators,
Manuele Engineers, and BlueScope Steel. XLERPLATE®
hot rolled plate steel was used to manufacture
massive structural steel beams allowing clear
spans of up to 41 metres, which were used in conjunction
with LYSAGHT® purlins to build the supporting
structure of the building. Read the full story

Leading
home builder, Clarendon Homes (New South Wales),

7 . The Block Saves Water With WATERPOINT SLIMLINE®
Tanks |
BlueScope Steel is leading the way for sustainable
housing with the donation of three WATERPOINT
SLIMLINE® rainwater tanks to The Block. The tanks
were installed to offset mains reliance and reduce
water entering the stormwater system in peak loading.
