GREEN STUCCO
Green Friendly LA Stucco - Recently Featured on Economical Eco TV!
Green stucco has been a highly debated topic over the past few years. With the cost to "go green" averaging around 10% in the construction field, there has been more and more calling for products that allow a green direction, without taking a company into the "red"!
Stucco in itself and by nature of it's make up is not inherently "green". However there have been moves by some companies to streamline the delivery of product and improve on standard coverage levels. From using a minimum of 10% post consumer recycled content to an up to 25% increase in coverage per bag, green stucco was born.
An average 90 pound bag of stucco has already been replaced by some with a 69 pound bag of green stucco. The lighter delivery of this green stucco means greater production and fuel savings which equal less CO2 emissions.
The lighter, smaller bag of green stucco will also produce labor benefits in the form of less fatigue and fewer back injuries; common in the construction industry.
Given the huge weighting of stucco finished homes across the Southern United States today, a green stucco product is greatly received, and is set to continue to lead the way in green stucco direction.
