Hit The Green Deck
VAST Enterprises, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota has broke the green barrier in the traditional mentality that landscape pavers must be made from concrete or clay. Made from a highly engineered material comprised of up to 95% recycled materials, their Composite Pavers are the first socially responsible paver alternatives in the industry, a highly engineered material designed to maximize strength, durability and appearance. It is manufactured in a scrap-free process that produces zero toxic or harmful emissions. VAST is the first composite paver manufacturer with a closed-loop recycling program which redirects recovered pavers back into manufacturing new products. Greatly exceeding the LEED performance requirements in several areas. (more…)
