Luxury Housing Trends & Home Improvement Ideas

While granite may still rank as the most highly desired countertop material, in a lot of circles, people are opting for greener, more earth-friendly choices. Why choose a limited resource that has to be quarried from the earth when you can pick something cool looking that is made from recycled materials?

If you dig the simple, somewhat industrial lines of concrete countertops, you may be interested in Syndecrete.

It is a composite of natural minerals and recycled materials, and the end result is something durable that is less than half the weight of ordinary concrete.

Syndecrete is available in 13 solid colors and 12 aggregate blends, and you can use it anywhere you’d use concrete, so you’re not limited to countertops (I just like the look of concrete countertops, so that’s the picture I swiped). Think pool decks, interior walls, floors, planters, and even furniture.

There are lots of possibilities for this eco-friendly material.
