The Business Case for Transparency in the Built Environment

There is a rapidly growing movement within the building products industry to embrace transparency and avoid toxic chemicals. Programs like Declare, the “nutrition label” for building products, and the Health Product Declaration Open Standard are empowering customers to demand transparency from suppliers while creating new platforms for manufacturers to communicate the sustainability attributes of their products.

But chemical ingredients lists and the myriad of assessment tools can be complicated and confusing, often leading to information overload, especially for non-scientists. There is a need for tools and technology platforms that simplify and prioritize the most critical information in an elegant and easy-to-use form.

In this one-hour webcast, you’ll hear how companies are embracing transparency as a key to long-term success, and how public disclosure programs like Declare, and building project management tools like GreenWizard add legitimacy to transparency efforts and help distinguish leaders from their competition. 

Among the things you’ll learn:

• How material selection decisions affect for human and environmental health.
• How to find and specify healthy building materials.
• How to utilize transparency platforms to ensure the health of my employees
• How to create a successful and profitable business strategy around transparency.
