EF Block Georgia Showcases How Styrofoam Construction Will Provide More Than Recycling For the Community
On Tuesday, September 21, Tech Square ATL (TSQATL) Social Club hosted an exciting Showcase in partnership with EF Block Georgia to launch a city-wide styrofoam recycling initiative with support from the Georgia Center of Innovation, a division of the Georgia Department of Economic Development, and the City of Atlanta, to keep these materials out of landfills and repurpose them into usable materials.
The Future of Sustainability event invited community members and guests to take a look at the future of building materials for residential and commercial spaces via a new product, EF Block™, that was turning everyday recycled styrofoam into earth-friendly, stronger, and sustainable walls that would ultimately replace traditional building materials.
Attendees enjoyed a short presentation on the science behind this new sustainable resource, along with a live demonstration immediately following, which included testing a flamethrower against the block material.
