"A typical 1,700 square-foot wood-framed home requires the equivalent of clear-cutting one acre of forest. Less than 5% of the virgin old-growth forest in the United States remains uncut, and global forest cover is disappearing at an unprecedented rate."                                     --City of Scottsdale Green Building Guide

Have you ever considered owning your OWN manufacturing business?

Entrepreneurs! Here is an opportunity to produce and market a building product with a strong future and to own an exclusive local franchise.

Contractors! An EF Block™ plant, which recycles EPS into eco-friendly Insulated Concrete Forms, could be the perfect vertical integration for your company. We now have local franchises in Kingman, Arizona, and La Paz, Baja California, Mexico. We are also building soon in the Phillipines and Costa Rica. Maybe now is the time to see if this is right for you.

Our manufacturing modelis small regional facilities that make use of local recyclables. This "mini-plant model" reduces the carbon footprint from shipping raw materials in and finished products out over great distances. It also makes starting up a block distribution business a very affordable venture.
