Boston Barricade Company is setting the standard for
Environmental Leadership and Commitment to Waste Reduction.
Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.
Preserve Resources. Prevent Waste.
The evolving retail shopping center industry requires frequent change of inline stores. At the same time, reducing waste is one of the biggest environmental challenges facing the construction industry today. Old-style drywall barricades are dumped in landfills after only a few months of use, collectively generating millions of square feet of unnecessary waste.
Consider the following:
- On average, retail construction enclosures are used for 12 weeks.
- All drywall enclosures will eventually end up in a landfill.
- The retail construction industry generates over 5 million square feet of drywall waste annually from construction enclosures alone.
- When dumped in a landfill, drywall (a.k.a. gypsum board) breaks down and releases toxins into the atmosphere and ground water.
In contrast, Boston Barricade modular walls are:
- Easily cleaned and reused
- Made with 100% recyclable materials
- Built with durable, attractive panel faces that withstand dozens of installations
- Constructed with welded aluminum frames for many years of service
- Engineered to be totally rebuildable
With retail construction barricades now averaging 800 square feet, choosing Boston Barricade will make a significant reduction in your job site waste stream and is a great way to start “greening” your business.
Boston Barricade is a member of the United States Green Building Council and is active with the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™. Using Boston Barricade instead of drywall can earn valuable “LEED CREDITS” for job site waste reduction. Boston Barricade Company is also a member of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) WasteWise program.
