Sustainability services for manufacturers of green building materials

Manufacturers around the world are creating more sustainable building products, including items with reduced chemical content, superior product stewardship, zero off-gassing, reduced carbon footprint/greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and more.  

But there’s also an abundance of building materials that claim to have reduced environmental impact – with no confirmation.

We connect you with independent, science-backed testing, certification and verification services that help you reassure the buildings and construction community that your products will help meet regulatory and performance requirements.

“My passion is the intersection of sustainability and public health. If we can reduce the exposure to chemical emissions at the product or building level, we can minimize the risk of adverse health effects to ourselves, our children and our grandchildren. This ultimately leads to a safer, more sustainable world for all of us.”
