Caring for the environment

At Cowra Concrete Products, we take our environmental footprint seriously and we have considered what is best for the environment in all aspects of our business.

We have invested heavily into our production facility and into recycling technologies so that the environment does not pay the price. The level of recycling technology we employ is second to none in its environmental credentials and we are proud of our efforts in this area.

Our sustainable production facility at Cowra has been configured to:

• Lower embodied energy
• Reduce greenhouse gases
• Increase recycling
• Eliminate water pollution
• Preserve fauna and flora

Benefits of concrete masonry

Concrete masonry has significantly less embodied energy than clay masonry because concrete doesn’t need to be fired and instead only needs curing in low temperature kilns which are largely exothermically heated.
