EcoRock drywall is the first green drywall on the market. As Springwise points out, while there has been eco-conscious building materials like Greensultate, drywall hasn’t seen the same eco-conscious enhancements.
Made of 80% recycled materials, EcoRock drywall is used the same way as normal (gympsum-based) drywall but it uses less energy to produce. It is also termite-resistant, 50% more resistant to mold, generates 60% less dust, fully recyclable, and can be used as a pH additive for soil.
