CarbonSense® Sustainable Building Consulting

We know that the road to more sustainable building is complex and ever-evolving. While there are some well-known best practices for lowering embodied carbon emissions, it is not a one-size-fits-all approach and every project is unique. At Ozinga, we believe that our purpose is to make a positive impact on our communities that will last for generations. One way that we’ve committed to living out our purpose is to find more sustainable building material solutions for the construction industry and other industries alike. With concrete being the most used man-made material on earth and contributing largely to global emissions, we know that there is a lot of work to be done.

Design and Planning Expertise

Since 1928, Ozinga has been pushing the boundaries of the building material and construction supply industries. Throughout our extensive history, there are examples of problem solving, overcoming challenges, and embracing innovation and forward-thinking. Ozinga believes in early collaboration with all stakeholders to find the best overall solution for each project. By doing so, we have the opportunity to do more than just deliver materials to the jobsite. We are constantly developing and testing new products and solutions to reduce embodied carbon emissions without compromising strength or performance, and we even have the ability to customize mix designs to meet each project’s specifications.
