Are am-cor buildings environmentally friendly?
am-cor structures are inherently environmentally friendly, and we make an effort to be even friendlier. Heat energy is required to create structural materials such as brick, concrete, steel, and cement based unit masonry. Plastics are hydrocarbon based, made from fossil fuels (oil). Wooden construction stresses timber resources. Replacement of wooden buildings destroyed by natural disasters further depletes timberlands. Durable am-cor structures use a fraction of the steel and cement normally required, reducing pollution and stress on the environment.
