Construction industries are one of the major sources of environmental waste and pollution. According to a report by World Economic Forum, the construction sector contributes to around 40% of global carbon emissions. Thorough research and development in the construction domain have helped in the implementation of novel and sustainable solutions in building projects. One such leading construction company, Perfect Level Contruction Inc., is a team of green building workers who promote eco-friendly materials and sustainable construction solutions in Ontario, Canada. In today’s blog, we see how PLC is moving towards sustainable living and decreasing its carbon footprint.
We need to explore numerous eco-friendly options to practice sustainable living. Right from the raw materials to design, construction, operations, maintenance, and renovation, the entire cycle must be favourable to the environment with less waste production. Advanced technology and innovation with renewable resources would ensure sustainability and reduce carbon footprint. Here are a few simple steps adopted by construction companies to positively impact the environment.
To ensure less waste production, one should remember the Four R’s -Reduce, Reuse, Refuse, and Recycle. The zero-waste policy may be very challenging and impossible to achieve 100%. However, one can always keep an eye on the current waste and implement ways to reduce it. According to a report, virgin steel can be recycled, and its reduced usage can decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 3%.
Cement manufacturing leads to massive energy consumption and waste production. Switching to eco-friendly resources can be beneficial in construction product manufacturing. Supermud bricks, Hempcrete, Recycled plastics, Bamboo, Laminated timber, Hemp fibre and recycled aggregate concrete, Cork sprays, etc., are leading eco-friendly options for sustainable construction. PLC is a leading Canadian distributor of Coverlink’s Cork Spray in Ontario and across Canadian provinces. You can read more about cork spray here and know why it is a wise choice for architectural finishing.
PLC also offers sustainable solutions in roofing, surfacing, and waterproofing systems.
With the boom in technology, we can research and analyze options that can help innovation and modern construction solutions. Building eco houses, eco and green roofs, cork sprays and paints, and restoration solutions will contribute towards a better environment and less wastage. It is crucial to have flexible designs, adaptable structures, and low-carbon products to improve construction practices and harness the power of renewable resources.
PLC, in association with Kemper System and Coverlink, uses products that are made from 80 to 100% renewable raw materials, chemical and toxin-free, non-irritant, durable, stable, and with a warranty of up to 20 years. All the products are of excellent quality, affordable, and highly approved after a series of tests before application.
Reducing carbon footprint is not a daunting and overnight task. With small and meaningful changes, we can overall create a positive impact on the environment for years to come. Construction industries can opt for the four R’s and rely on innovative solutions to consume less energy. PLC, a Canadian construction company, offers reliable, excellent, and affordable green solutions for construction.
