A steel building system utilizes factory-produced components and assemblies that guarantee quality controlled construction thus offering significant cost and performance advantages such as:

• Faster installation
• Lower lifecycle costs for greater return on investment
• Compelling sustainability attributes
• Virtually unlimited design flexibility

Each component in the system is engineered and designed to assemble together, so that a steel building system can be built with greater speed and precision than is possible using conventional methods. Also, the use of these systems enhances the sustainability in a building not only through the use of steel, but also through a systems approach to building design and construction.

The following are a few sustainable features:

Recycled Material: Virtually all Butler® components are made from recycled scrap material

Reduced Material Use: The design of Butler® building systems allows the use of fewer construction materials

Reusable Structures: All Butler® steel building structural materials are 100 percent reusable

Finishes: All finishes applied by Butler meet or exceed EPA regulations for low-VOC paints (low emission of Volatile Organic Compounds)

Energy Efficiency: Butler offers a range of insulation systems that can achieve R-40 or better if required

Cool Roofs: Butler offers sustainable fluoropolymer finishes that meet reflectance standards for "cool roofs," guarding against the Heat Island Effect, which produces high relative temperatures in urban areas

Low Transportation Cost: Butler regional fabrication plants assure that production is close to most building sites, reducing transportation energy costs.
