CONCRETE ORIGINALS: Profile > Green Business

We believe the decisions we make as a business have a great impact on our environment and our community.  We feel that the future state of the world is our responsibility and we are grateful for the opportunity to help.

Green Products

We buy green materials to build our products. Our customers have the option of adding 100% recycled glass to their concrete countertop or concrete sink. We create our products with a very small margin for waste by reusing materials and planning efficiently.

We are now offering eco-friendly countertop, backsplash, and floor resurfacers! Our resurfacer is the eco-friendly alternative to traditional resurfacing systems. It utilizes a recycled pozzolan material that reduces up to 25% portland cement content while increasing strength and durability. Eco-friendly Resurfacing Page - GO>>

Green Work

We are developing a water reclamation system to re-use our water that we would have wasted previously during the polishing stage of our sinks and countertops.

We continue to research innovative ways to save energy and work in more sustainable manner. We recycle glass, plastic, and paper.

Our green scrap design program was created in the hope of using every scrap of material. Our fabricators create multiple scrap designs each month out of scrap mold materials, and a little extra concrete. We then agree on the best one and that becomes the green scrap design of the month. All proceeds from our green scrap designs go towards developing our green products, contributions to Green Builders Association of Central PA and Susquehanna Sustainable Builders Network. We developed our green scrap design program to allow us to continue to eliminate waste in a creative way.
