Winner Google 2007 Green Building Prize California Clean Tech Open

BuildFast is a Green technology.  In fact, we were even named the Winner of the Google 2007 Green Building Prize at the California Clean Tech Open green technology competition for entrepreneurial companies. 

Why is BuildFast green?  Because BuildFast panels are naturally well insulated, homes built with them require less heating, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions and reduces deforestation.  The expanded polystyrene panels require little energy to make, and because we intend to produce them locally, little energy will be used in shipping.  At the end of the panels’ useful life, approximately 100 years, the panels can be recycled.  

As an alternative to the concrete covering of the panels, BuildFast encourages customers to use concrete alternatives where they are available.  For example, customers can use Gigacrete, which is a concrete alternative using 80% recycled materials.  Alternatively, customers can use regular concrete mixed with flyash to reduce the environmental impact. 

When we launch a project, we use local labor to produce the panels, creating local jobs and contributing to the local standard of living.   We consider both the environmental and economic impact of decisions our firms make on the local environment.  Our goal is to improve the standard of living & housing in the developing world, and we ensure that all our actions are consistent with these values.
