2 CertinTeed respects the environment through the responsible development of sustinble building products nd systems. Builders, contrctors nd mnufcturers continue to look for wys to reduce our industry s impct on the environment while meeting customer demnd for products tht deliver beuty, comfort nd performnce. CertinTeed s commitment to these gols is reflected here, highlighting our ongoing effort to become the preeminent supplier of green building mterils. p 6-17 SYSTEMS LEED for New Construction LEED for Schools LEED for Homes Advnced Design LEED for Homes Stndrd Design NAHB Advnced Design NAHB Stndrd Design p 18-3 p 4-33 p INTERIOR PRODUCTS Ceilings Gypsum Insultion EXTERIOR PRODUCTS Fence, Riling nd Deck FiberCement Siding nd Trim Foundtions Polymer Shkes nd Shingles, Vinyl Siding nd Trim Roofing GLOSSARY OF TERMS

3 As homeowners nd municiplities become more environmentlly conscious, building professionls re more likely to be sked bout dhering to green building stndrds whether they be the Ledership in Energy nd Environmentl Design (LEED) Green Building Rting System, the Ntionl Assocition of Home Builders (NAHB) Ntionl Green Building Stndrd, or locl codes with environmentl components. The LEED rting system ws developed by the U.S. Green Building Council to provide ntionl benchmrk for the design, construction nd opertion of high performnce sustinble buildings. In order for building to become LEED certified, it must meet certin prerequisites nd chieve specified performnce levels to qulify for rting points. CertinTeed is member of the U.S. Green Building Council nd supports the LEED progrm. This brochure detils potentil LEED credits tht cn be erned by CertinTeed products under LEED for Homes (LEED-H); LEED for New Construction (LEED-NC); LEED for Core & Shell (LEED-CS); LEED for Commercil Interiors (LEED-CI); nd LEED for Schools. NAHB collborted with the Interntionl Code Council (ICC) to develop n ANSI stndrd for green building prctices. This stndrd, known s the Ntionl Green Building Stndrd (NGBS), provides system for certifying homes s green buildings, wrding points to homes bsed on the design nd mteril choices mde in constructing the home. The NAHB credits listed in this brochure re bsed on the finl version of the stndrd, pproved by ANSI in erly 009. CertinTeed offers mny products tht will chieve points towrd NAHB s NGBS certifiction. In ddition, mny of these products hve received the NAHB Reserch Center Green Approved third-prty endoresement, evidence tht they meet specific green criteri tht fcilitte chievement of NGBS credits. Through the progrm, points re wrded bsed on vriety of fctors tht contribute to the sustinbility of product, including recycled content, ISO plnt certifiction, nd the use of durble, termite-resistnt mterils. Receiving Green Approvl for number of products is nother wy CertinTeed hs vlidted its commitment to being the industry leder in the development of sustinble building products nd the environmentlly friendly opertion of its mnufcturing fcilities. Both LEED nd NAHB stndrds provide verifiction tht building project meets the high performnce stndrds for green buildings. LEED certifiction is recognized ntionwide s proof tht building is designed to be environmentlly responsible nd helthy plce to live nd work CertinTeed Corportion nd its prent compny, Sint-Gobin, were selected s 009 ENERGY STAR Prtner of the Yer by the U.S. Environmentl Protection Agency (EPA). The wrd recognizes Sint-Gobin nd ll of its North Americn businesses, including CertinTeed, for their ccomplishments nd ledership in reducing greenhouse gs emissions through energy efficiency. CertinTeed mnufcturing fcilities were instrumentl in chieving these reductions, both through significnt reductions in the energy used by mnufcturing opertions nd through the mnufcture of products tht help mke homes nd buildings more comfortble nd energy efficient. 3

4 Comcst Center LEED Gold for Core nd Shell Towering over the Phildelphi skyline t 58 stories (975 feet), Comcst Center is high-performnce sustinble building with n bundnce of fetures tht will conserve energy nd reduce impct on the environment. A number of CertinTeed products re fetured throughout the building, including: CertPro AcoustTherm Btt Insultion, SoftTouch Duct Wrp Insultion, nd Ecophon Focus D nd Dg ceiling pnels. The Ecophon ceiling pnels gve the project significnt green boost; with LEED recycled content of 73%, they bost the highest such percentge of ny ceiling pnel vilble in North Americ. Wterfront Technology Center t Cmden LEED Gold for Core nd Shell CertinTeed CertPro unfced fiber glss btt insultion provides New Jersey s Wterfront Technology Center t Cmden superior therml protection nd energy efficiency s well s coustic control for improved working conditions within the building. The unfced light-density btt is designed for steel stud construction nd esy friction-fit instlltion. As Flts + Lofts This Portlnd, Oregon development ims for LEED Gold with green building products from CertinTeed Gypsum. ProRoc Moisture nd Mold Resistnt with MTech gypsum bord nd GlsRoc EGRG shething pnels were key elements in the sustinble design nd construction of this Pcific Northwest project. The environmentlly friendly ttributes of the CertinTeed products will contribute to erning vluble LEED credits. 4
