One of the best green arguments to use lead, is its recyclability. Lead can be used and re-used over and over again. In fact, at Midland Lead, all our lead sheet is made out of 100% recycled lead scrap
2. Lead has an energy-efficient manufacturing process
Compared with the manufacturing processes of other construction materials – both oil-based weatherproofing materials and other metals – lead sheet can be produced very energy-efficient, due to lead’s low melting point (327
