Tricon Wear Solutions and Ultra Tech Pipe, portfolio brands of Construction Forms, Inc (CFI), are proud to announce their acceptance as Partners in The Copper Mark, a leading assurance framework promoting responsible production practices across the copper value chain. This relationship marks a significant milestone in CFI’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-performance, abrasion- and impact-resistant steel plate and piping solutions with a reduced environmental footprint.
As newly accepted Copper Mark Partners, Ultra Tech and Tricon are recognized for their role as trusted suppliers to copper producers committed to environmental stewardship and sustainable production goals. Tricon’s abrasion-resistant steel plate fabrications (made from proprietary steels Tri-Braze and Super-C) and Ultra Tech’s induction-hardened pipe achieve service life 2-4 times longer than many other steel solutions in the market.
By using more durable steel products, copper producers can reduce their carbon footprint associated with producing raw steel and transporting finished steel components. Single-wall, induction-hardened pipe is also more easily and cleanly recyclable than lined or clad pipe.
Stefan Brosick, Chief Executive Officer at CFI, shared his perspective on this new relationship:
“CFI seeks to align with companies and organizations that have shared values around sustainability in mining. Several of our key customers recognized the value of The Copper Mark mission. Now, customers have assurance that our values, products, and business practices are aligned with their sustainability goals.”
CFI looks forward to collaborating with The Copper Mark and its network of partners to advance sustainability across the copper industry and beyond.
