Green Building Solutions
More home buyers are demanding cleaner home environments, free from toxic gases that can come from the carpeting, plywood, and adhesives used in traditional home construction.
Building with LEGACY CICF Blocks (composite insulated concrete form) reduces energy consumption, and with energy savings comes environmental benefits. The EPA estimates that the average U.S. home releases 22,000 lbs of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere each year. That’s twice the amount of the average vehicle. By reducing the amount of energy used for heating and cooling, LEGACY CICF Block significantly reduces CO2 emissions.
Per the most recent LEED New Construction checklist v2.2, LEGACY CICF Block can contribute up to 22 of the required 26 points for a LEED-certified project.
