Concrete site furnishings manufacturer, Dawn Enterprises, has made concrete sustainable by mixing recycled coloured glass in the concrete.
Bollard with Recycled Glass
This method not only increases the sustainability of concrete but also gives a good finish to the end product. Recycled glass of different colours such as green, blue and citrus and even clear glass can be used. These glass pieces can either be added separately or in combination with concrete products such as planters, benches, trash bins and bollards.
The concrete benches manufactured by the company are also offered in combination with plastic lumber as a replacement to the regular wooden slats. This new method of combining used glass to concrete as been received very well by the green community and customers who are looking for green products. The new method is suitable for customers who want elegance and a distinct finish in the products they use and at the same time keep environment conservation in their mind. Dawn Enterprises is based in Manchester, Connecticut. The company serves markets which include entertainment establishments, restaurants, retail and service. Dawn Enterprises produces and resells metal exterior site furnishings, pre-cast concrete, stone aggregate and plastic exterior site furnishings.
