GreenCE Inc. has launched the industry's first comprehensive LEED v4 specification program for building product manufacturers. Recently, the USGBC released its new LEED v4 rating systems, the most widely used green building programs in the world. The new LEED certification program utilizes Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), and Health Product Declarations (HPDs) to design healthier and more efficient buildings.
The HPD plays a significant role in the new LEED v4 green building rating system. The HPD provides information about a product's contents and related health issues and is having a critical effect on product specification. GreenCE is helping building product manufacturers meet these new specification requirements by utilizing a multi-disciplinary team of biologists, architects, and LEED experts.
