FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) September 22, 2009 -- Oprah Wants You to Help the Environment!
With so much attention on the environment as of late, Oprah is asking everyone to do their part to help save the planet. With the real estate market being particularly hard hit, builders are scrambling for ways to build more environmentally sound homes. Leading the way in this economic turnaround is RASTRA. This company coined the term “Insulated Concrete Form”, a revolutionary building system which offers simplicity in use, quality and strength at an affordable cost. ICF was invented by RASTRA in 1972 and they have been the company behind reliable buildings ever since!

ICF looks like your typical concrete block, but holds so many more advantages. It is ground up Styrofoam mixed with cement that creates this durable product. A 1 ½ foot thick wall insulates better from noise and the elements. Burn proof and wind proof, it doesn’t mold and is the only type of structure currently available that withstands hurricanes! Over 9 million units have been placed in service with installations throughout Europe, the Middle East, Far East, North Africa and the Americas, in all types of climates from the Austrian Alps to the Saudi Arabian Desert, to the humid climate of Southeast Asia. RASTRA believes we have a clear choice – either continue to accept mediocre energy performance and embarrassing durability or step up and build homes that provide lasting value. Today, RASTRA is not only recognized as the original, but also as the best product of any ICF category.

So what's it going to take? Foreign countries have a stranglehold on our economy and global warming threatens the ecological balance of our planet, yet we continue to build exterior walls that just don't perform. We do this while better, more cost-effective solutions are readily available. Although RASTRA has been around for over 35 years, Americans are just now realizing the vast benefits that come from building with ICF and the environmental impact this product has on our future. RASTRA only uses recycled Styrofoam products to produce their materials, thus creating a better place for us to live. Both commercial and residential builders are scrambling to get the corner on this market before waiting lists are too long from the company that invented the product! Our disregard for the environment has to change and we know it. So let's start doing the right thing, not because we're being governed to do so, but because we want to. Contact RASTRA today to become an environmentally conscious builder who uses this product at www.RASTRA.com or contact them directly at 866-272-7872.
