SUSTAINABLE BUILDING MATERIALS AND PRACTICES:
Preventing waste and pollution by recycling construction waste in lieu of adding to landfills
Improved indoor air quality by using materials and eco-paints with low VOC content and monitored construction practices and environment
Recycled content in materials such as concrete, structural steel, aluminum panels, rubber pavers and gypsum wallboard contribute to 10% recycled content for the whole building
Products manufactured from regional sources reduce emissions when transporting materials from distant locations
Rapidly renewable products such as the bamboo for the floors (harvested every five years regenerating without the need for replanting) |
