BuildingGreen, Inc, publisher of the GreenSpec® Directory and Environmental Building News™, announced at the US Green Building Council’s Greenbuild Conference in November, the 2007 Top 10 Green Building Products.
“Our selections of the Top 10 Green Building Products represent a wide range of product types in many different application areas,” noted BuildingGreen president Alex Wilson. Four of the winning products this year save energy. Two products save water. Three products are green in part because they are made from recycled or recovered material; two because they avoid hazardous manufacturing or disposal of materials, and one aids in the siting of solar energy systems. “Most of the Top 10 products this year have multiple environmental attributes,” said Wilson.
A big driver in the development of green products continues to be the US Green Building Council’s LEED® Rating System (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), which awards points for the use of certain product types or for the energy or water savings that green products can achieve. “Designers of LEED buildings are looking for green products, and manufacturers are responding,” said Wilson.The Top 10 Green Building Products
