LEAD'S GREEN FACTS AND ASPECTS

Lead is one of the oldest and most durable building material and has historically been known to last for more than 500 years.

Lead is by far the most efficient and typically most cost effective shielding material, as it takes much less area volume(thickness) to properly shield and far less shielding material expense costs (compared to other metals,composites,metallic polymers or "lead-free" shielding materials) for shielding medical diagnostic x-ray and ionizing gamma radiation protection,and lead is the one dependable pure metal standard that all conventional radiation shielding is based on and which all other materials and composites are compared to for establishing a shielding attenuation value.

Some of today's other shielding alternatives can deteriorate and fail within 20 years,or less. The types of materials used and the methods of manufacture mean they are destined for early replacement – this means they potentially have both a negative cost and environmental impact.

There is an established scrap lead salvage and recovery network in the US that ensures constant recycling. When compared to virtually all other products,metallic polymers or composite materials used as a shielding substitute, lead's recovery rates are dramatically higher in Western countries and in the U.S. as more than 98% of lead used in building or construction is recycled.

Lead is 100% properly recyclable time after time after time – and it never deteriorates, no matter how many times it is recycled, retaining all the natural qualities that attract architects,physicists and engineers to it in the first place.

Properly recycling lead uses far less energy than the original mining and smelting process that first created it, and a lower melting point during the recycling process delivers impressive energy saving efficiencies making reclamation cost effective as well as environmentally desirable.

3 million tonnes of lead are produced worldwide each year by simply recycling scrap lead from construction,shielding,roofing, pipes and batteries. In fact, in the western hemisphere, more "new" lead is efficiently produced by proper recycling than by new mining,and thus preserving our precious resources.

Specifying lead shielding will also help keep other materials - (some of which are much more difficult and expensive to recycle) - from entering the ecosystem where they could easily end up in our landfills.

Studies by various research and development institutes show that synthetic materials,metallic polymers and composite materials developed as a potential alternative to lead have significantly higher impacts on global warming during their manufacturing process,-- and as is becoming more widely accepted, global warming and climate change is one of the current factors potentially affecting the world's environment.

  • Ray-Bar only utilizes metallic lead in solid forms,which is one of the safest and least bio-available forms of lead.
  • Please note Ray-Bar does not melt,cast,smelt,alloy,burn or weld lead, and does not offer lead ore,oxides or other potentially hazardous forms.
  • Ray-Bar can help assist in your building projects achieving LEED certification points utilizing our products.
  • * Ray-Bar is a proud member of the U.S.Green Building Council and the Canada Green Building Council.
