It is a popular choice in our industry as it has the lowest carbon footprint over the lifecycle of a structure. Concrete is also unparalleled in durability, safety, and strength but left to the elements, its surface appearance deteriorates over time. This makes it particularly suited to our expertise in long-lasting colour and functional coatings.
Concrete Facades
