Precast concrete fencing has a number of sustainable features - concrete is long-lasting, waste is minimized at the project site, color is mixed with the concrete to eliminate VOC release and painting once installed, and post and panel systems use substantially less concrete in the foundation footers than traditional masonry or block walls.  Artisan Precast is the leading provider of post and panel fencing products and they now are using 90% post-consumer steel for reinforcement.  This change makes such concrete fence offerings even more compelling for architects and project owners who are looking to obtain green certification for their projects.

   I have seen both the fence and the wall system and they both look very nice and the wall system is classy as well.

   I like the concepts you have of minimizing the waste at a project, these are some of the same goals we have when designing. Nice to see there are others out there making sustainable products that have form and function. Thanks for your post and your efforts!
