Vinyl versus Steel
Vinyl siding is petroleum based and 12-15% waste from every job ends up in landfills. This excess waste is harmful to the environment and increases the siding cost.See documentary about the effects of vinyl on the environment - Blue Vinyl

Mean Green Steel
95% to 100% of steel is recycled globally and the life expectancy is far greater for steel products compared to most other materials such as vinyl, wood or fiber cement. Steel siding is 100% recyclable at the end of a long useful life; and on job-sites, steel and aluminum material waste is easily separated and recyclable. In addition, due to the credible long life and documented durability, steel siding makes an attractive investment not to mention it is aesthetically pleasing. That is the beauty of Legacy Seamless Steel Siding.
