Healthy forests help life on Earth thrive. The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) – a nonprofit organization that covers more than 150 million hectares of certified forests – provides the world’s most credible sustainable forestry solution, trusted by NGOs, consumers, and businesses to help promote healthy and resilient forests, for all, forever. Equally governed by environmental, social, and economic perspectives, FSC helps forest managers, smallholders, and governments ensure thriving forest ecosystems and safeguard the livelihoods of forest communities. FSC’s forestry standards, linked to a strict chain of custody certification, are a proven solution to fight the climate and biodiversity crises. The FSC logo – found on millions of products worldwide – is the most recognized mark for responsible forestry.

Eco Material Technologies - a CRH company - is the leading producer and supplier of sustainable cement alternatives in North America, serving over 6,000 unique customer locations with 10 million tons per year of recycled material from its 115+ sites across 46 states. The Company is the leading marketer and distributor of fly ash and other pozzolans, with the industry’s only true national footprint of logistics networks and distribution channels. Eco is the leader in non-traditional supplementary cementitious materials (“SCMs”) via beneficiation from landfilled/ponded ash, bottom ash and natural pozzolans. Eco has 9 plants in production and under construction that can produce over 4 million tons per year of sustainable, novel SCMs. Our proprietary Green Cement technology utilizes fly ash and other pozzolanic materials to produce innovative, near zero carbon products as green substitutes for portland cement in concrete. Our standard SCMs like fly ash replace ~20% of portland cement in concrete mixes all while creating a stronger, cheaper and more environmentally friendly concrete. Our portland cement replacement products – marketed under the Green Cement brand - Pozzoslag, PozzoCem and PozzoCem Vite - upgrade fly ash and natural pozzolans into 50-100% replacement products for portland cement in concrete. Portland cement is responsible for 8% of global emissions and is an especially hard source of emissions to reduce economically. Our technology is the exception, for every ton of portland cement we replace we keep one ton of CO2 out of the atmosphere. No one keeps more emissions from portland cement out of the environment than we do in the United States - nearly 7 million tons of CO2 each year. The Company also provides mission-critical utility services, including operations support, waste disposal, and environmental remediation.

Mission: We are leaders in providing artisan-quality bamboo homes and innovative durable building products made from the most rapidly renewable resource on the planet. About us: Bamboo Living Homes are the first and only code certified permit-able bamboo structures in the world. Since 1995, we have proudly designed and permitted more than 350 bamboo homes in the Hawaiian Islands and other beautiful locations in the world. History: During a walk through the bamboo forest on Maui in 1994, our founder Jeffree Trudeau experienced an epiphany. He understood that it was time to make his vision of “a better way to build” a reality. Shortly after his resolve, he met Co-founder, Architect David Sands, and together they began to co-create the first certified and permitted bamboo homes in the Western World. The first prototype, built in 1996, was a bamboo cottage designed for Kutira Decosterd, at Kahua O’Mali’o Maui Bamboo Farm Retreat. The cottage, or "Bamboo Temple", is still used as guest accommodations today. Bamboo Living Homes are an imaginative and bold solution to the tremendous impact caused by conventional building practices. Every bamboo home that goes into production saves about 10 acres of forest from being cut down. To date, there are more than 350 homes in the Hawaiian Islands and other locations in the world. The enduring quality and structural integrity of bamboo is a testament to the combined skills and genius of Jeffree and David. Bamboo Living Homes are still the only international building code certified, permit-able bamboo structures in the world. We invite you to join the growing family of bamboo homeowners and be a part of a truly grassroots movement.
