Green Construction Practices @ Puraniks Builders
Puranik Builders has adopted green construction practices with a purpose to conserve environment and nature.

Water Conservation By
Rain water harvesting / recharge pits. Zero water runoff by using perforated concrete pavers. Water efficient landscaping. Drip irrigation system. Herbal & Medicinal tree plantation.

Non-Conventional / Renewable Energy Resources
Like wind mill, solar water heaters backed up by gas geysers, solar products like solar lights for common areas such as clubhouse, swimming pools, street lights, garden lights, parking lights, podium, staircase and passage lights, hording lights.

Use of Low Voltage
(PL, CFL, LED) lights, as well as use of timers/sensors in common areas.

Use of Plumbing Fixtures
Plumbing fixtures of low flow, dual flush tank in toilet, energy efficient pumps for U.G tank, S.T.P and Swimming Pools.

Architectural Planning of Puranik Builders

• Architectural planning for cross ventilation and maximum natural lights.
• Use of double glazed windows, which can reduce energy consumptions by 8 to 10 %.
• Insulation of roofs - painting them white, making terrace garden, use of thermal barriers.
• Reuse of debris in other projects.

Usage of Green, Recycle, Eco Friendly Products
Like fly ash in concrete and mortar. Use of fly ash bricks, use PSC or fly-ash content cement. Use of Recron 3s, Nina polymer material in mortar which is a by-product of polymer industries. Use of readymade sand (Silpoze) which contains fly-ash. Use of FRP, aluminium, UPVC doors, windows and frames in place of wooden. Use of CPVC, UPVC, ASTM plumbing pipes and fittings in place of G.I.

Dry-Wet Garbage Disposal System

• Dumping in land fill sites
• Incineration
• Palletisation
• Recycling Advantage of Proper Waste Management
  
  • 1. Organic manure by composting or vermicomposting
  • 2. Recycle of the metal, paper and glass materials
  • 3. Proper disposal of hazardous waste
  • 4. It generates business and employment

Vermi Composting
An eco friendly option for Domestic waste management.

Vermiculture means artificial rearing or cultivation of earthworms. Vermicompost is the excreta of earthworm. Earthworms eat Garbage, cow dung or farm yard material and pass it through their body and in the process convert it into vermicompost. Earthworms by consuming garbage converts it into valuable manure but keep the environment healthy.

It is a process of converting organic waste into stabilized organic matter using the Earth worm. It is best suited to housing Societies where they have some space to deposit garbage for long period and some distance required in case if it smells due to overfeeding. This is an easy way to recycle your organic kitchen wastes.

Vermicomposting requires very little work, produces no offensive Odours, and helps plants thrive. Only a few things are needed to make good worm compost: a pit, bed, worms and its food.

Biogas Plant
Biogas plant is an anaerobic digester that produces Biogas from animal wastes or energy crops. Energy crops are cheap crops grown for the purpose of biofuels, rather than food. Biofuels are liquid, gaseous, or solid fuel made from live or recently dead organic material known as biomass, as opposed to fossil fuels, which are composed of ancient biological materials. Biogas is a type of biofuel created via anaerobic, or oxygen-free, digestion of organic matter by bacteria.
