Innovate the Future with Eco-Friendly Structures

We support sustainable building design and construction by providing high-performance products that contribute to long-lasting, energy-efficient structures and a healthier environment.

Our air barrier, coating, sealant, transition and waterproofing systems prevent air and water leakage to minimize the building’s energy usage, operational costs and ongoing maintenance.

Keep reading to see how our green building materials contribute to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), GREENGUARD and Living Building Challenge certifications.

LEED

Our construction solutions have been used on countless LEED-certified buildings across the residential and commercial sectors to improve the sustainability and resiliency of our communities.

GREENGUARD

UL GREENGUARD Certification validates products for low chemical emissions and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to protect indoor air quality and human health. Use the SPOT® database to search for our GREENGUARD certified products.

Living Building Challenge

The Living Building Challenge (LBC) involves efficient design and construction of new and existing buildings to drive positive environmental impacts through its seven performance areas or “petals." We help design and construction teams achieve LBC certification through a variety of eco-friendly solutions. Download our complete LBC product chart.
