1 Sustainable Buildings: Challenges for the metal industry Patrick Le Pense MFB Alliance Chairman October 25th 2012

2 What s new in construction? MEErP LCA - EPD Module D CEN TC 350 CPR, DoP System Boundaries Construction PEF EoL Embedded Energy EPBD CEN TC 351 BREEAM, HQE GWP 2

3 Bring answers to global mega-trends Growing Population Urbanization Climat change Healthcare Revolution Accelerating technology 3

4 Our solutions are already answering partially Contribution to energy efficiency in buildings New and renovation Metal solutions are enabling designers to invent the «modern art of architecture» Very long lasting durability 4

5 What will be the building of tomorrow? 5 5

6 A future high performing building envelope High insulation levels guaranteed Insulation & air tightness performances No more thermal bridges. More prefabrication / preassembly of components offsite Combination of active & passive system needed To manage summer and winter comfort together The building interior has to be safe & comfortable Participation to the full building performance Reduced impacts all along the building life cycle Embedded energy at fabrication and erection stage Need to consider EoL scenario Insulation: Only «one visible part» of building performance 6

7 Industrial Buildings LCA: Primary energy impacts 600 MWh High End Insulated Hall 450 MWh Insulated Hall 1 Conversion ratio GJ /MWh = 3,6 Source : bauforumstahl 7

8 Industrial Buildings LCA: Primary energy impacts Insulated Hall 1 Energy Consumption during service life Embedded Energy with Module D High End Insulated Hall 65% Future Impact of regulation 16% 25% 35% Embedded energy Source : bauforumstahl 8

11 Being active at EU levels is key Sources: Eurostat Regulation: The new CPR = same in 27 countries Total R 69,6% D 4,99% Dec 25,41% 11

12 And Brussels: the place to be! Second place after Washington in terms of: - number of lobbyists (15 to ) - Number of journalists (1300 accredited) Multiplicity of stakeholders Preference of the EU institutions to dialogue with EU representations Capacity to build «Alliance» 12

13 Metals For Buildings Alliance MFB is intended: To represent the common interest of its members To promote and lobby In favour of the sustainability & recyclability of metals for buildings An alliance of 11 European metal associations All active in the building sector Initiated 2011 & official membership in 2012 By-laws in 2013 Based on the positive experience within CEN/TC350 Strong common actions in favour of module D integration

14 11 European metal associations 14

15 Metals in buildings contribute strongly to EU economy Metal products in buildings: > 100 Bn annual turnover > direct jobs But also huge indirect impacts: > erecting companies in EU Distributors & transport, Equipment manufacturers, services, Dismantling and recycling process, 15

16 MFB objectives and activities Objectives Communicating and advocating the sustainability dimension of metals in buildings Stressing that end of life recycling of metals in building is a today fact/reality. Securing that regulations, associated methodologies, standards and other EU documents credit properly the recyclability and the end of life recycling of metals in buildings Advocating appropriate allocation methodologies in LCA/EPD Promoting «End of life recycling» vs. «recycled content» 2012 activities June 20th: Official launching with EU VIPs - MeP & Commission Website, Leaflets, press release Workshops (June & September) with EU commission Activities per «task force» on each relevant topic 16

18 Why are recyclability and «Module D» key for us? Module A1 Environmental impact per kg Primary production 5,0 Recycling 1,0 Production mix Primary 60% Recycling 40% EoL RR 90% Net Scrap production 50% Module D 18

19 LCA GWP impact : Module A+B without «module D» Steel Concrete Concrete &Timber 19 Source : bauforumstahl

20 LCA GWP impact : Module A+B with «module D» Steel Concrete Concrete &Timber 20

21 Metals in buildings are efficiently and economically recycled Today, > 95% of the metal products used in buildings are collected at end-of-life. Life cycle cost :Metals in Buildings could be part of asset management High economic value for this systematic dismantling, collection and recycling. Energy savings between 60% and 95% compared to primary production, with potential upgrading 21

22 Permanent resources for the next generations Contribution to EU economy Better value for stakeholders Thermal Efficient Solutions Metals For Buildings Recyclable & recycled Building renovation Natural Resources savings European environmental legislation have to consider those unique performances 22

23 Metals for Buildings Alliance: 2013 next steps Constant advocacy actions on current EU initiatives CEN TC 350,. Ecodesign, Ecoplatform, Ecolabel, Communication Work with EU Parliament Approach MoP for exchanges Create an «inter-group» Become CEPMC full member To be at the board, like concrete or timber Organize our contribution to WGs 23

24 Our main issue: Present footprint = 1.3 earth Metals for Buildings could be part of the solution 24
