October 6, 2003—Dofasco Inc.’s galvanized and Galvalume steel products, which are used in manufacturing building products such as light steel framing, have been recognized by the Asthma Society of Canada as part of a healthy indoor air environment.
Light steel framing is an inert, neutral material. It does not release chemicals into the air, support mold growth, or offer a source of food or shelter for insects such as termites. Dofasco is the first Canadian steel company to receive recognition for its galvanized and Galvalume steel products from the Asthma Society of Canada. Building products made with Dofasco steel will carry a label bearing the Asthma Society and Dofasco logos.
