Flowtite Tanks & Green Building
Green building in both commercial and residential projects is an increasingly important focus of new construction. Whether for certification or simply the long-term cost savings of sustainable designs, green building is beneficial to everyone.
Effective designs depend upon reliable materials, and no green building material is as green as fiberglass. The EPA states that fiberglass is truly environmentally friendly based on product longevity and embodied energy, as well as limited use of resources and low pollution levels emitted during the manufacturing process. Fiberglass is made from silica sand, an abundant natural resource that is readily available almost everywhere. More importantly because fiberglass will never rust, corrode or degrade; the material extends product life and reduces life cycle costs. These attributes are critical when creating a sustainable product. CSI fiberglass products can contribute to National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) credit programs.
