Sustainability in Action: Our Green Concrete Initiative
Eco-Friendly Concrete Solutions for a Better Tomorrow
Sustainability That Works for Greater Richmond & Central Virginia
Concrete is the second most consumed material on Earth, behind water. While it’s critical for construction, traditional concrete production significantly impacts the environment. If the Portland cement industry were a country, it would rank globally as the third largest CO2 emitter, behind only the US and China. Additionally, the industry produces 4.5 billion tons of material annually and uses massive amounts of water, with 75% of water demand expected to occur in water-stressed regions by 2050.
At Ogburn Construction, we recognize these challenges and are taking action. Our Green Concrete Initiative offers sustainable concrete solutions that reduce waste, conserve resources, and minimize impact on the environment.
Eco-Friendly Materials in Every Project
- PolyLevel® Foam: Lightweight, strong, and environmentally safe, this material lifts and stabilizes sunken slabs while supporting the soil beneath.
- Vuba Stone: A sustainable, durable option for resurfacing and enhancing concrete surfaces.
- NexusPro® Cracked Concrete Repair: Resistant to UV rays, extreme temperatures, and weathering, NexusPro® ensures durable, year-round repairs that prevent further damage and extend concrete life.
- SealantPro® Concrete Sealing: In just one application, SealantPro® permanently bonds with concrete, offering 3-5 times more durability and superior protection against UV rays, water damage, and ice formation.
Repair Over Replace: Sustainability That Lasts
- Waste Reduction: By restoring existing concrete, we keep old materials out of landfills and reduce the demand for new resources.
- Durability: Our repairs are built to last, minimizing the need for repeated fixes and lowering your overall environmental footprint.
Protecting the Planet and Your Property
- Minimized Environmental Impact: Sustainable materials and methods help reduce CO2 emissions.
- Enhanced Property Value: Long-lasting and eco-friendly concrete repairs improve your surface's durability, safety, and curb appeal.
Why PolyLevel® is a Green Choice?
- Chemically Inert: Once cured, it won't react with surrounding materials or harm the environment.
- Non-biodegradable: Ensures long-term stability without breaking down or contaminating the soil.
- UV Resistant: Installed below the surface, it won't degrade from sunlight exposure.
How We Do It?
Our green construction practices ensure sustainable results while addressing the root cause of your concrete issues:
- 1. Inspect and Assess: We evaluate your property to develop a targeted repair plan.
- 2. Lift and Stabilize: Uneven slabs are lifted and secured using environmentally friendly methods.
- 3. Repair and Protect: Cracks and joints are restored to prevent water infiltration and further deterioration.
