Concrete is a key part of building a resilient future, providing unparalleled durability, strength and security. Concrete enhances the ability of our communities to withstand natural disasters worsened by climate change by reducing the risk of significant damage, protecting us against high winds, fire and storm surges, and lowering the time and costs needed to rebuild communities.
Builders, architects and designers have come to recognize that buildings and homes built with concrete for better durability and to resist damage from natural disasters also reduce the impact entire communities have on our planet.
Concrete is also a key economic driver: it provides the strength for resilient infrastructure that allows our society and economy to continue functioning and is one of the cornerstones of the construction industry.
