Concrete Industry Facts
- Concrete is the most widely consumed substance on Earth besides water.
- If the Portland cement industry were a country, it would be the third largest CO2 emitter on the planet, behind only the US and China. (Portland cement is the stuff that holds concrete together.)
- The cement industry produces 4.5 billion tons of material every year.
- Concrete production uses a lot of water.
- By 2050, 75% of the water demand for concrete production will likely occur in regions that are expected to experience water stress.

For Production
How do I fix my broken, sunken concrete?
PolyLevel foam is incredibly light and strong. So strong, it can lift broken, sunken slabs of concrete up to their original positions while compressing the unstable soil beneath it. This means PolyLevel not only fixes your driveway, patio or pool deck but also fixes the soil conditions that likely caused the problem in the first place.
PolyLevel Reduces Waste and Carbon Emissions
Fixing your existing concrete with PolyLevel foam has two positive environmental effects:
from ending up in a landfill.
the worst emitters of CO2 on the planet.

PolyLevel Is Environmentally Friendly
High-density polyurethane foams such as PolyLevel have been the subject of multiple scientific and regulatory studies over the years, and they’ve found:
