As a leading manufacturer of concrete construction and landscape products, County Materials is proud to recognize Earth Day and the importance of sustainability in manufacturing and construction.
Concrete construction and landscape products can play a significant role in helping buildings and infrastructure projects achieve sustainability goals.
Cleaner Manufacturing Processes
County Materials is committed to producing long-lasting products in a sustainable manner.
Concrete is manufactured using cement, water, and aggregates. At the end of its service life, concrete can be crushed and used for a variety of applications or recycled into new concrete products.
We source our aggregates responsibly from local quarries, minimizing the fossil fuels consumed during transportation of aggregates and finished materials. We are constantly investing in new technology and incorporating the latest best practices to reduce our energy consumption, use of raw materials, and our emissions, such as substituting fly ash and recycled concrete for raw aggregate to reduce our cement usage.
Long-Lasting Products
Concrete is a trusted material choice for infrastructure, buildings, schools, hospitals, and private residences. Depending on the product, project application, and installation process, concrete can remain in serviceable condition for 30 to 100 years, reducing the need for reconstruction. And in some cases, concrete products such as reinforced concrete pipe can even be reinstalled after decades of use to meet new infrastructure needs.
Reduced Energy Consumption & Emissions
With a high thermal mass, concrete can absorb, store, and release heat. These properties can help reduce peak energy consumption in buildings built with concrete, contributing to significant energy cost savings and reduced emissions over a project’s life cycle.
We are proud to supply reliable concrete solutions for growing communities.
Together, we’re building a company that hardworking people are proud to work for, live near, and do business with since 1946.
