GREEN BUILDING CONTRIBUTIONS

Thoughtful Design, High-Performance Products

Foundation building components represent an opportunity to consider optimization around embodied carbon impact, waste re duction, and safe material composition. Even more, taking the ground out of play with a high-performance, properly installed, and long-lasting water vapor barrier is critical to improved indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and the durability/adaptability of buildings,

Although many definitions exist, a “green building” (or “green home”) is general ly thought of as one that reduces its negative impact on our natural environment compared to its “standard” counterpart. Green buildings implement design and con struction strategies that minimize adverse impacts while maximizing the health and comfort of occupants throughout its design, construction, and operation phases. Green buildings and homes often go beyond minimum code requirements to incor porate thoughtful design, high-performance products, and quality construction tech niques. Their ultimate focus is often on measurable improvement to aspects like en ergy performance, indoor air quality, and durability. Because of this, a greener home or building is likely to cost less to operate, improve occupant health and peace of mind, and reduce (or eliminate) environmental negative impacts through its lifecycle.

as well as the long-term performance of other building materials, like flooring systems. With unmatched, Life of the Building™ protection, Stego barrier solutions have been the choice for a myriad of projects, but especially ones with broad sustainability goals.

With Stego barrier solutions, sustainability starts from the ground up.
