Concrete is one of the Best and Most Sustainable Products in the Market
Sustainability, balancing the effects of growth against its environmental impact, is enhanced when concrete is used for your foundation materials.
While cement is high in embodied energy, it comprises only 10%-12% of the total volume of concrete. When you factor in the other components to concrete, transportation and production cost (which are usually local), energy savings, longevity, maintenance, and recyclability, concrete is one of the best and most sustainable products in the market.
