Did you know? . . .  

Wood Surpasses Steel and concrete in the following categories

ENERGY USE

Wood Products require much less energy to produce than concrete or steel. An independent

comparison of the energy needed to obtain, manufacture, transport and install building

materials for identical wood frame, steel frame and concrete houses proves wood’s

environmental superiority over alternative materials. The result is more fossil fuels saved with

less air and pollution.

“Green  Goals,  Think  Unitech”  

 The  green  market  was  2%  of  non-­‐residential  construction  projects  in  2005;  12%  in  2008;  and  grew  to  be  28%-­‐35%  in  2010  

 Results  show  that  manufactures  of  wood  materials  use  53%  less  energy  than  steel  and  120%  less  energy  than  

concrete  when  produced.    

 As  the  world’s  only  renewable  building  material,  wood  cannot  only  be  recycled,  but  

regenerated  as  well.    

 North  American  Forests  have  

grown  20%  since  1970  

- Energy Use - Pollution - Green Building

- Resource Use - Environmental impact - Eco Friendliness

 Buildings  represent  72%  of  U.S  electricity  consumption.    

 Green  building  will  support  7.9  million  U.S.  jobs  and  pump  $554  million  into  the  American  economy  over  the  next  four  years  (2009-­‐2013)
