Drywall is a phenomenal creation but we end up with WAY too much of it in landfills. It’s a problem. By using Green Zip Tape you can help your community by keeping drywall out of your local land fills. It makes for a FANTASTIC pitch by the way to city and county councils as you are seeking your approvals. There are also fantastic tax benefits to be had.
If you are building a hotel, multi-family, office or medical facility and you are not using Green Zip Tape, you are missing out on many opportunities to improve your project from all facets…construction, environmental, tax, cash flow and value.
$10MM+ construction projects
Let’s talk about it. Give me a call anywhere in the U.S.
Green Zip Tape is transforming the construction industry, and it’s only a matter of time before developers, investors, and property owners recognize it as the smarter, greener way to build. Not only does Green Zip Tape offer a more environmentally friendly approach to construction, but it also provides unmatched tax advantages that extend through the building’s life, benefiting owner after owner, year after year.
The Environmental Benefits
With Green Zip Tape, less sheetrock ends up in landfills—an impactful step toward reducing construction waste. This patent-protected tape also enables easy access to internal walls for repairs, making maintenance smoother and renovations faster, cheaper, quieter, and cleaner. It’s an innovation in sustainable building that truly minimizes environmental impact.
Maximize Financial Benefits Through Cost Segregation
The financial benefits of using Green Zip Tape are substantial. Imagine shifting approximately 10% of your project’s construction costs from the typical 27.5- or 39-year depreciation class life to a much shorter 5-year class life. For example, in a $30 million multi-family project, $3 million could be reclassified to the 5-year category, creating a significant tax advantage, even if 100% bonus depreciation isn’t renewed in 2025.
In practical terms, that $3 million reclassification translates to approximately $1 million in tax savings. Whether those savings are realized in the first year or over five years, this reclassification is a bonus on top of what you’ll get from a cost segregation study. You’re building a better building that will be able to carry on to future owners. These advantages transfer to new building owners, enhancing the building’s value and market appeal over time.
