Environmentally Friendly Green and Sustainable

Sustainability

Fighting the elements with a conscience. We all must do our part to combat changes in our climate. As a company, Ghostshield prides itself on prioritizing sustainability and helping the earth in the following ways:

Ultra Concentrated Formulas

Ghostshield offers its most popular concrete sealers in an industry-first ultra-concentrate. This means one gallon does the work of five gallons equating to 80% less packaging, 50% less transportation costs and 80% less container waste. We like to think of it as innovation with a conscience.

Low VOC’s

Volatile organic compounds (VOC's) can be harmful to the environment. This a popular topic and is largely due to the increasing restrictive regulations across the country requiring lower VOC levels in various paint and coatings. VOC regulations vary from state-to-state. A lot of our concrete sealers have zero VOC's. Zero VOC's means they’re free of toxic, carbon-based solvents that pollute the air and pose health risks. If you are looking for the performance of a solvent and prefer to avoid VOCs, we offer low VOC solvent products. Ghostshield concrete sealers meet VOC requirements in all 50 states, and if there is a restriction, we have an alternative. Our concrete sealers meet rigorous emissions standards, release fewer pollutants, and support healthier air quality.

Meets LEED Specifications

What is LEED? LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the most widely used green building rating system in the world. Available for virtually all building types, LEED provides a framework for healthy, highly efficient, and cost-saving green buildings. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership. LEED is for all building types and all building phases including new construction, interior fit outs, operations and maintenance and core and shell. Ghostshield products meet LEED specifications and are compliant with LEED regulations for green building as set forth by the US Green Building Council. LEED submittal information is available upon request for all Ghostshield products.

Water-Based

Concrete sealers come in both water-based and solvent-based formulations. When discussing water or solvent, we are discussing the “carrier” of the active ingredients within the sealer. As a carrier, water tends to be the most cost-effective solution because it’s readily available. It dries fast, is non-flammable, non-hazardous and is safe to use around people and pets. Ghostshield formulas are primarily water-based and a water-based counterpart is available for all of our solvent based formulas.

Recycled content and rapidly renewable or bio-based materials:

Ghostshield products are manufactured with 0% pre-or post-consumer recycled materials content and 0% rapidly renewable, bio-based or wood materials content.
