Recently we had the opportunity to work with some "Green Products" because we have been working on a building that is to become "Platinum Certified" and also, another that is to become "Silver Certified".
Many people think of "Green Products" as not being very attractive. The pictures in this posting are all "Green Products", meaning that they are made from recycled content. Examples of this kind of material would be paint with no VOC's to reclaimed timber.
Many companies now are providing more choices that will provide points towards getting a building "LEED
Certified".
"Green Products" are products that are made with pre-consumer recycled content, post-consumer recycled content, are energy efficient, recyclable, low emitting material, a renewable source or is located with 500 miles of its end use.
