Nowadays, infrastructure plays a vital role in the development of every business sector. Either it is the health sector, the manufacturing sector, or the education sector, every field needs a sustainable infrastructure. Buildings are a significant part of the foundation; we need buildings to fulfill plenty of purposes such as home, manufacturing, production, offices, etc. Most of the major operations of the world are performed behind the four walls of a building.
From ancient times to modern times, buildings were required to fulfill the basic demand for an ongoing lifestyle. As the population is multiplying and technology is changing the way of living, the demand for buildings is also increasing very fast. We are constructing buildings as per our requirements with the help of the latest technology. But now the vast infrastructure is giving rise to problems such as pollution and the unavailability of non-renewable resources.
Some more problems arise due to the construction of poor quality buildings such as durability, the daily lifestyle of human beings, and health-related issues. So, we have to build better and more sustainable buildings for the fulfillment of our needs. Thus, keeping ourselves and, more importantly, the environment safe?
Here we will discuss sustainable buildings and their essential components, which can help us develop a sustainable building that can easily procure the certification from a green building professional.
Maintaining waste management and pollution emission from the building is one of the most important criteria for a sustainable building. It would be best if you always took care of waste material which is disposing of the building. It should be recycled as much as possible with proper waste management with the least pollution emission.
Make sure that the equipment running in the building is maintaining the air quality of the building and the surroundings. This should be maintained during the construction as well. Use non-toxic building materials that contain low, volatile organic compounds. You could also install a heat recovery system that will provide the required ventilation. Thus, let the fresh air into the home and exhaust the hot air from your home, keeping it cool.
Energy efficiency is also a huge issue. Better insulation in walls, ceilings, floors, and use of quality grade electrical and electronic appliances such as high-efficiency rating products, energy-efficient LED lighting will save the electricity and energy cost of the building.
Install high-quality windows to control leakage and to balance the air quality of the home. Accurate window placement will also help in utilizing the sunlight by taking advantage of the sun's position throughout the day to keep your house warm in winters.
Install solar panels on the roofs to use the sunlight for water heaters, radiant floor heaters, lightning purposes, and more.
Install water tanks to collect rainwater for different purposes, such as for gardening and in bathrooms to improve the building's water efficiency. Install drain water heat exchanger, which can recover heat from the hot water for showers, dishwashers, sinks, bathtubs, and or washing clothes.
Always use sustainable materials that are good for the ecosystem, whether you are renovating or constructing a new building. That will save money and provide a healthier life. Also, try to use local materials to cut transportation costs and choose a supplier who operates his business sustainably.
For more details, consult with a green building professional consultant before constructing the building. They suggest every possible construction and equipment which needs a sustainable building.
So here, we have seen the essential components of sustainable building and how it helps the environment. We should always follow the certification of the sustainability of buildings. Thus, we must always take care of these essential components while constructing a building as they are beneficial for our economy and health.
14 November 2018, The U.S. Fire Retardant Treated Wood Market is estimated to exceed USD 115 million by 2024. A rising number of incidences of wildfire break out is expected to result in increased demand for fire retardant wood.
The U.S. fire retardant treated wood market has changed drastically over the period owing to the increase in arson accidents lately. For instance, there was a warehouse fire which killed approximately 33 people and left other injured in California, in December 2016. Such incidences have resulted in personal safety concerns and are expected to result in a surge of the fire retardant treated wood industry.
The government has mandated stringent regulations mandating the use of fire retardant materials in institutional and public places or event venues owing to the recent elevation in temperatures and fire incidences. The flameproof wood is gaining popularity among builders as the safety of residents is preferred the most, hence increase in demand from construction sector will help boost the fire retardant treated wood market.
Demand for fire retardant in institutional structures accounted for 25.2% of the total revenues in 2016. The segment is expected to witness sluggish growth on account of the saturation of the market in this space. Nonetheless, the mandated use of flame retardants in museums, schools, and universities by authorized regulatory bodies is expected to drive the market.

Other areas of applications such as personalized gifts and defense sector are expected to boost the market for fire retardant treated wood. For instance, the U.S. Navy uses flame retardant treated wood to construct blimp hangars for controlling the fire on ships.
The increase in the construction and sale of new houses is expected to augment the growth of the market. Moreover, consumer preference for wood over other construction materials is expected to provide an impetus to the market growth over the next few years.
Chemco, Westminster Industries Ltd., Quality Support, LLC, Conrad Forest Products, Viance, and Lonza are some of the key players operating in the industry. Viance is integrated in its operations from raw material supply to manufacturing fire retardant treated wood products. Low switching cost owing to low product differentiation has resulted in high rivalry among competitors.
