LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. It is an internationally recognized green building certification system. LEED was developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) in March 2000. LEED provides building owners and operators with a framework for identifying and implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations, and maintenance LEED uses a suite of rating systems to promote sustainable building and development practices. These systems implement strategies for better environmental and health performance, all overseen by a committee of industry professionals and scientists.
Mar-Flex offers several products to contribute to a positive LEED rating. Products like Shockwave and GeoMat Plus are made of 100% recycled materials, contributing majorly to any LEED certification.
