Our Commitment to People, Craft, and the Future

At Panos Concrete, we believe how we build is just as important as what we build.
We prioritize clean, safe job sites, recycle what we can to donate to community based initiatives, and support mental wellness and safety in the trades.


As we grow, we’re committed to learning, improving, and doing our part to shape a more thoughtful, responsible future in construction.

Building With Intention — For Today and Tomorrow


We’re contributing to a future where construction reflects greater awareness — one that values care on and off the job site, supports the well-being of workers, and builds with responsibility at every step.


Mental Health in the Trades: Why It Matters


Many people don’t realize how deeply mental health stigma affects the construction industry. At Panos Concrete, we believe it’s time to talk about it — and support the people behind the work.


Barriers Workers Face


Simply not knowing or having limited understanding and awareness about mental health, many people in the trades may not recognize the signs of mental health or substance abuse issues. This can include immigration status, language barriers, and other factors that results in people often not seeking help.


1. Lack of Awareness
    Many workers aren’t taught how to recognize the signs of mental health or substance use issues. Not knowing the signs or symptoms of mental health struggles or substance disorders often go unrecognized. This can include burnout, anxiety, depression, or dependency of substances. Promoting awareness is the first step.

2. Stigma in the Workplace
Dismissive language or toxic jobsite culture can make it hard to talk about well-being or ask for help. Stigma makes it hard to speak up or even admit to themselves that something is wrong. Breaking this cycle requires for leadership in construction sites to normalize conversations about mental health.

3. Limited Access to Support
 Fear of job loss, lack of confidentiality, or simply not knowing where to turn often prevents people from getting care. Providing clear, confidential, and easily accessible support options are critical.

4. Language & Cultural Gaps
 When resources aren’t available in one’s language or culture, workers may feel even more isolated. This can lead to people feeling unseen or unwelcome in spaces.
