Specify Responsibly?
EuroCucina 2024 trade fair in Milan, Italy!
What does Specified Responsibly mean?
A sustainable building is the outcome of responsible material specification, which aligns the efficient use of resources with over-arching aims to reduce a building’s impact on the environment during its lifecycle.*
Responsible specification also means the avoidance of materials that may have been produced through unethical practices, or otherwise pose a threat to human health and well-being.
* Srinivas, Hari, “What is a green or sustainable building?”. GDRC. https://www.gdrc.org/uem/green-const/1-whatis.html (accessed 7 December 2021)
Through responsible material selection, specifiers can minimize environmental impacts by reducing reliance on natural resources, using reclaimed & recyclable materials, avoiding materials with high embodied emissions, or by simply creating less waste.
