Green Building

Eco-friendly, or ecological construction is building a structure that is beneficial or non-harmful to the environment, and resource efficient. Otherwise known as green building, this type of construction is efficient in its use of local and renewable materials, and in the energy required to build it, and the energy generated while being within it.

Eco-friendly construction has developed in response to the knowledge that buildings have an often negative impact upon our environment and our natural resources. This includes transporting materials hundreds or thousands of miles, which has a negative impact in the energy required to transport them, and also in emissions of hazardous chemicals from a poorly designed building that creates, and traps them.

Many options are now available to those wishing to design and build an eco-friendly dwelling. Architects, engineers and builders worldwide are now using construction techniques (such as “LSF”) that have been developed, in response to local environmental concerns and the physical resources available, coupled with 21st century technological refinements.

 

Somundy has been a leading force in “LSF” construction in the world market for over 15 years and from the beginning, has focused on protecting the environment.   Throughout the years and with over 500 projects completed we are always looking for ways to build “More Green”.  Focusing on Research and Development, Somundy continues to improve our line of already environmentally friendly trade-ready building products.
