Fabulous guide to Green countertops! I have already contacted EnviroGlas for pricing for my kitchen. I have considered all the other materials in this spreadsheet and hadn’t seen any other website with the environmental and health concerns of each. Thank you!

Good article, we are help rebuild the hurricane destroyed GULF Coast of Mississippi. We are utilizing a green bilding approach to all the houses we are building in fact all of our projects are designed to get a 90 or above LEED score. Your articles and resources continue to be very helpfull in our mission. Thank you all.
