Sustainability check for building products
High-standard building products – what does their use mean for building certification? In which categories of international systems such as LEED, BREEAM, DGNB can product properties can score points? What are the advantages for investors, builders, architects and planners? We have been testing products and assessing buildings for decades, so we can help you find the right answers. We are happy to arrange a free initial consultation to explore the potential.
We offer compatibility assessments of material-specific characteristics, particularly with regard to health- and environment-related criteria sets:
- Assessment of the impact on life-cycle-relevant criteria sets (LCA, LCC)
- Presentation of environmentally and socially responsible material sourcing
- Presentation of disposal characteristics and the recyclability of products
- Assessment of the deconstruction and recycling options of materials or buildings
- Determination of the recycling content of products or systems
- Presentation of service lives for durable products
- Targeted information for auditors, planners, and contractors to support material decisions (even in very early planning phases)
- Compilation of data and documentation for building product databases (such as baubook)
