Going Green in 2010!
To succeed in today’s global market a company must not only meet the goals in its business plan , but also demonstrate an environmental conscience. In the fencing and foundation field, Artisan Precast sets an excellent example. The company has developed a coast-to-coast client base offering low-cost, low-maintenance products designed to reduce carbon impact on the planet.
Artisan uses water-based released agents and recycled materials in their concrete production. According to the EPA, construction materials lend themselves to recycling because the recycled components have many of the same chemical and physical properties as the virgin materials they replace, and sometimes even improve the quality of a product. This is certainly the case with the Artisan line - using recycled cementitiuous material reduces the cement content while still yielding a product with a strength of 5,000 psi or greater.
In addition, Artisan Precast products require no painting or staining, because the color is mixed into the concrete. Eliminating painting on project sites further avoids VOC release into the air. Integral color means no repainting, zero maintenance, and long-lasting aesthetic appeal.
