SUSTAINABILITY

BUILDING TODAY WHILE PROTECTING TOMORROW

There’s a better way to make rebar. A way that combines product strength and superior yield while being good to our planet.
It’s called the HYWAY!

 

WE HOLD OURSELVES TO HIGHER STANDARDS

Increased energy efficiency

by using a direct current (DC) furnace and a 40—ton hot heel.

Reduced carbon emissions

due to using fewer carbon electrodes with a DC furnace.

Reduced heat and energy loss

compared to older billet fed rebar mills due to our advanced continuous mill technology.

Reduced water consumption

and minimal water discharge.

WITH GREAT IMPACT COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY

Our work to build a better tomorrow began long before putting the first shovel in the ground at our home in northeast Arkansas. We started by designing our mill to meet the world’s most rigorous sustainability requirements. This led to Hybar being the world’s first steel producer to obtain Green Bonds—Climate Bond certification. Our mill design also enables us to set our sights on becoming the only LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified steel rebar mill in the world.

And we’re not stopping there. Stay tuned as we continue to rack up industry firsts and continue to meet our customers’ ever—increasing environmental demands.

100% Solar Powered Steel

Building tomorrow starts at the top. We’re talking about solar energy and how we plan to use it. Hybar will produce rebar using 100% solar energy through a direct connection to an adjacent, behind—the—meter solar installation. We’re the first in North America (and likely the world) to be able to do this.
