YKK AP and cove.tool Team Up to Help Architects Easily Reach Sustainability Goals
YKK AP is the first fenestration manufacturer to embed revgen.tool into its website, empowering architects with deep analysis and actionable insights to meet a project’s energy savings and carbon footprint goals
On May 25, YKK AP America Inc., a technology-oriented manufacturer of commercial facade systems and residential doors and windows, and cove.tool, a leading provider of building design and construction software, announced a partnership to make it quicker and easier for architects to reach their project’s carbon, cost and energy performance goals.
YKK AP is now the first fenestration manufacturer to integrate its products into cove.tool’s recently launched revgen.tool, a cloud-based solution designed to make it easier for building product manufacturers to engage design teams earlier in the process as they select products. By using this tool, which went live on YKK AP’s website mid-summer, architects will be able to best identify and align on which YKK AP-specific products may fit best with their project by using real-time product- and project-specific performance analysis as opposed to generic product data. Architects will walk away with deep analysis and actionable insight around embodied carbon, cost and energy performance to better meet a project’s energy-saving goals.
