# WHY CONCRETE - SUSTAINABLE

## Sustainable Infrastructure

![ACPA-Website-Homepage-Sustainable-Concrete-3](https://georgia.concretepipe.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Images/ACPA/Website/Homepage/ACPA-Website-Homepage-Sustainable-Concrete-3.png?width=381&height=159&name=ACPA-Website-Homepage-Sustainable-Concrete-3.png)Historically, concrete is the most durable and sustainable material for infrastructure and major construction. It continues to function long after a projects life is reached, by maintaining structural integrity, thus reducing the costs associated with repair and replacement.

Precast concrete pipe’s staying power has another benefit; it’s not a passing fad. When concrete pipe is specified, the projects you build today are more likely to be compatible with any future expansions or alterations.
