Sustainable Building credits
Using CRAFT to earn credits in Green Building Rating systems

Indoor Environment Quality, Energy, and Material are core common categories to the established green rating systems. CRAFT’s commitment to using certified wood (as evidenced by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) to be from legal and responsible sources certification of all its products) along with its use of low-emitting materials (as verified by its GREENGUARD® Gold and Red List Free® certification), and lifecycle assessment (as verified by its Environmental Product Declaration) are product attributes that will help a project team attempting certification in a green building rating systems.
