Winners of Roofing Contest’2019 Visited SSAB Facilities in Finland

In July 2019 winners of The Roofing Contest’2019 organized by UNIKMA visited SSAB facilities in Hameenlinna, Finland specializing in GreenCoat® color coated steels to see the coating line and the laboratory. The annual roofing contest was held in March on UNIKMA Moscow facilities. The contest program focused on inclined roof-making solutions with any type of coating. As a traditional event sponsor, SSAB presented its GreenCoat Pural BT coated steel at the contest. Most GreenCoat® products feature a Bio-based Technology (BT) coating where a substantial portion of the traditional fossil oil is replaced by Swedish rapeseed oil. As opposed to conventional coating formulas, the bio-based solvent becomes a permanent part of the final coating, making for a healthier environment and reducing the release of harmful substances into the air. SSAB, a Metal-Expo regular exhibitor, welcomes all steel industry professionals to their stand 1A15 at Metal-Expo’2019 (November 12-15, Hall 75, VDNHa, Moscow, Russia).
