Concrete vs. RenewWalls: The Showdown
For years, concrete has been the go-to for noise barriers—not because it’s the best, but because no one bothered to challenge it. Enter RenewWalls.
Concrete is heavy, expensive, and a pain to install. RenewWalls? 90% lighter, 50% cheaper to install, and built to last 50+ years. So why are we still messing around with concrete?
Weight & Installation
- Concrete: Massive, cumbersome, and expensive to transport. Requires heavy machinery, road closures, and lots of labor.
- RenewWalls: 90% lighter. Install crews can move it without breaking their backs (or the budget). 50%+ savings on labor and installation.
Cost Efficiency
- Concrete: Expensive to manufacture, transport, install, and maintain.
- RenewWalls: Cuts install and labor costs in half.
Durability & Longevity
- Concrete: Cracks, chips, and stains over time. Once graffiti hits, good luck cleaning it.
- RenewWalls: 50+ year design life, graffiti-proof, and UV-resistant. No fading, no crumbling, no headaches.
Aesthetic Flexibility
- Concrete: Looks like… concrete.
- RenewWalls: Can mimic concrete or steel finishes if that’s your thing, but with all the modern advantages.
Environmental Impact
- Concrete: Energy-intensive to produce, heavy on emissions, and difficult to recycle.
- RenewWalls: Made from recycled plastic, fully recyclable, and have a lower carbon impact.
Concrete Had a Good Run—But It’s Time to Move On
