Think
for a moment where we would be without concrete. It is hard
to imagine. Concrete is the basic building element for modern
society. Every major construction project uses concrete in one
form or another. It keeps us warm and safe; it allows us to
get to work safely; it beautifies our yards.
Environmentally
SOUND
Our environment matters. Concrete is produced from some of the
world's most abundant resources and without toxic byproducts.
The concrete industry recycles and reclaims throughout the manufacturing
process. It has a superior lifespan compared to other products.
Its thermal mass plays a role in energy efficiency. It helps
keep our urban areas cooler. Its light reflectiveness also helps
conserve energy. From the homeowner to the largest urban areas,
concrete is playing a major role in protecting and maintaining
our environment.
