Enviro friendly concrete

Looking for environmentally friendly building materials?

Quote from the manufacturer - “A new low emission concrete, developed by Wagners, is set to revolutionise the construction industry.

Branded Earth Friendly Concrete, or EFC, the concrete does not contain ordinary Portland cement which is responsible for the carbon emission intensity of normal concrete. EFC is developed from an eco-friendly alternative known as Geopolymer Binder, which is created from the chemical activation of two industrial waste by-products—blast furnace slag and fly ash.

This alternative binder produces a staggering 80-90 per cent less CO2 emissions than Portland cement and has the same, if not better, engineering and construction properties as normal concrete.”
