Sustainable Building Materials

A local company Noble Environmental Technologies (NET) manufactures non-structural building products from recycled wood and fibers under the brand name ECOR. Founder and CEO Richard Noble says the cost per square foot is trending below 30 cents – an amazingly economical option! This product is featured in the construction of some San Diego Whole Foods stores. Check out their website for more information on their product line http://ecorusa.com/, andhttp://www.greenbiz.com/article/upstart-manufacturer-turns-fiber-waste-building-materials-0 for an article on ECOR products in Green Biz. I saw this product for the first time earlier this year at a USGBC event and was impressed with the quality and appearance. Kudos to you NET for being a leader in the recycled materials market and a a valuable ally in cradle to cradle thinking.
