RECOMMEDED DOCUMENTS Virginia Lime Works and New Construction |
How many times have we heard the horror stories of unhealthy buildings. Schools shutting down, buildings being demolished, people hospitalized, all due to the way we are currently designing and constructing our new building. Statistically Americans spend 90% of their time indoors. Indoor pollution levels can be anywhere from 200% to 10,000% higher than outdoor levels. In fact 20% of the 117,000 schools in the nation reported unsatisfactory air quality in the 1990’s. 64 million people in the US have complained of Sick Building Syndrome like symptoms, which studies are now showing, could mean a 60 billion dollar loss in productivity nationwide. The statistics are startling and its time that we started building smarter. Virginia Lime Works is committed to providing an entire range of traditional masonry materials that will allow for healthier building. From wall systems that breathe, to non-toxic V.O.C.-free coatings, our products will help you design a building that you can literally breathe easier in. If you want to start building sustainable, high-performance, and healthy buildings, we would be honored to help. |
