Introduction of Green Concrete. In the history of the concrete world, green concrete is a revolution topic in Denmark; it was first invented in 1998. With the color green concrete has nothing to do. To make the system more sustainable, green concrete eco-friendly materials are used. What Is a Green Concrete?

The need and importance of sustainability in construction has become a debated topic due to growing concerns over climate change and the finite nature of resources. A sustainable build should take these factors into account along with the biodiversity of the land. Not only that, the sector is also a major producer of waste.

One of the things that often comes up when discussing the future of construction is sustainability. This is, after all, the only planet we can live in (that we know of), so promoting sustainability will serve us — and future generations. This post rounds up some notable examples of sustainable construction materials.
