Economic
Energy use is a substantial and widely recognized cost of building operations that can be reduced through energy efficiency and related measures that are part of green building design. On average, green buildings use 30% less energy than conventional buildings. Using Eco Tight Green building products not only saves you money through reduced resource and energy use, they also increase the value of your property when assessed by appraisers and investors.
Social
There is growing recognition of the large health and productivity costs imposed by poor indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in commercial buildings. This is not surprising as people spend 90% of their time indoors, and the concentration of pollutants indoors is typically higher than outdoors, sometimes by as much as 10 or even 100 times. Our non-toxic, construction materials and products help to improve indoor air quality, which significantly increases employee health and worker productivity.
Environmental
Almost all of the Eco Tight products contain no noxious odors or VOCs – making our coatings environmentally safe. Take an active role in helping reduce greenhouse gases, thus slowing the effects of global warming. By properly sealing a building the amount of oil that is needed to produce electricity and the carbon admitted into the environment is greatly reduced.
