JACK MULLER, an independent steel service centre based in the Netherlands, has become the first in the country to stock XCarb® recycled and renewably produced steel. The company now has a stock of Granite® HDS which was produced by ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products using the XCarb® recycled and renewably produced route.

Granite® HDS: organic coated steel with a 62% lower carbon footprint

The Granite® HDS was created using a minimum of 75% scrap steel and 100% renewable electricity. The result is a product with a 62% lower carbon footprint than steel produced via the traditional blast furnace route. The product is also available with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) which has been independently verified.

“The direct reduction in carbon emissions offered by ArcelorMittal’s XCarb® recycled and renewably produced steel fits perfectly with JACK MULLER’s philosophy,” says Glenn Muller, Owner and Managing Director of JACK MULLER. “We believe in offering customers a choice which includes products that have a lower carbon impact built in. It helps to make them future proof.”

JACK MULLER’s stock of XCarb® recycled and renewably produced Granite® HDS can be delivered to customers immediately. “We began with ArcelorMittal’s Granite® range as organic coated steel is our speciality and our customers expect us to keep them updated about new developments,” notes Coen van Gorp, Commercial Manager for JACK MULLER. “The steel will be marketed via our new web shop under the brand name JACK MULLER® UV Slim+.”

The Granite® HDS has a 35 µm thick coating and a smooth finish. “It is available from www.jackmuller.nl in two colours: RAL 9010 (Pure white) and RAL 9002 (Grey white),” says Coen van Gorp.

Magnelis®: combining high corrosion protection and long life with a low carbon footprint

Magnelis® is another steel from ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products that is used by JACK MULLER’s customers. Although the service centre has not yet purchased XCarb® recycled and renewably produced Magnelis®, Glenn Muller believes it could be of interest to their customers: “We do work with customers who are interested in greener products. These are customers who want to prepare for the future and contribute to the EU’s Green Deal. Magnelis® recycled and renewably produced steel will serve this goal as it reduces Scope 3 emissions for JACK MULLER, our customers, and end users. Combining the high corrosion protection and long life of Magnelis® with the low carbon footprint of XCarb® recycled and renewably produced steels could be very interesting for customers who are engineering steel systems for sectors such as solar farms, HVAC, and the building industry.”

JACK MULLER’s own operations are very sustainable. “We do not use oil, gas, or external sources of water in our facilities,” explains Glenn Muller. “This helps to keep our carbon footprint as low as possible. In addition, all new company cars are electric, and we use electricity for heating. We’re currently working on plans for a new processing facility that will be even more sustainable and make JACK MULLER’s operations future proof.”

Make your dream roof a reality. Our Roofing configurator tool facilitates the design of your ideal roof, in addition to the option to transform an existing roof or calculate roof slope area.

This design tool is currently available in French and Polish.

3 features in 1 tool

Design your roof: Create your dream roof by choosing from four types of architecture, eight types of profiles, and as many as 40 different coatings. This allows for up to 1000 different combinations!

Transform your roof: Alter your existing roof by making changes, such as matching the colours of your facades, doors, or window frames.

My roof: Calculate the area of a roof - including tracts, dormers, and other elements - based on a Google map image.

More than just a configurator

During the design process, you can get a better feel for the colour and texture of selected profiles thanks to the virtual 3D world – simply scan the QR code.

After designing or redesigning your ideal roof, the Roofing configurator generates a report containing the technical data, name, and colour of the roofing profile selected. In the Polish version of the tool, this report also contains the details of our partners who can offer you the selected profile.

For designers, BIM objects are available for the selected steels. A link to the relevant BIM objects is included in each report.

Design with Granite®: the best in class steel for roofing

Our Roofing configurator uses ArcelorMittal’s Granite® organic coated steels for roofing that gracefully wrap your roof ensuring elegance, durability, and beauty.

Granite® steels are available in a combination of rich colours with an extensive variety of surface patterns, such as smooth, grained, embossed, textured, or orange-peel effect. These steels are available in several finishes from matt to high gloss and even metallic finishes.
