Green Awards 2013: Marc J. Lieberman

Lieberman’s Forever Stone recycled granite waste business is a 100-percent LEED contributing organization dedicated to green building wherever possible.

Green Bio

Lieberman’s Forever Stone makes pavers, tile, fire pits, columns, benches and more from recycled granite waste. “We’re reducing waste by 10,000-30,000 pounds a week,” he says.

Green Innovation

The Downingtown company has started making columns out of recycled granite. “We can wrap any post or column six-by-six feet or smaller,” Lieberman says.

Bragging Rights

Lieberman is volunteering for Greenbuild 2013, the world’s largest conference and expo dedicated to green building that’s slated for Nov. 20-22 in Philadelphia, and he’s on the Legacy Committee.

Fun Fact

Granite fabricators throw away 25-40 percent of each processed slab. Forever Stone is 100-percent LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) contributing. “And it’s reasonably priced,” says Lieberman. “The Main Line consumes a lot of granite, making my business possible.”

Green Dream

The more his business grows, the more material Lieberman promises to recycle.
