Traditional methods of construction, while effective in building structures, often leave a significant mark on the environment. Understanding and implement new methods of zero-waste design in construction is critical to preserving the environment and building with the future in mind. ♻

What do Zero Emissions Buildings look like? The Department of Energy has just finalized an official definition that brings us closer to our goal of safe, comfortable, sustainable housing for all. Learn about the Department of Energy's final definition, find out how these elements are supported by Passive House standards, and see where we can go next.

It's no secret that the manufacturing, building, and construction industries produce a lot of waste. The manufacturing of building materials, along with the natural resources used to operate our buildings, has led to high carbon emissions and depleted resources. To better take care of our planet and people, strategies are being put in place around the world to create more sustainable processes and products. Read this article to see how the U.K. has implemented testing and practices to do this: https://hubs.la/Q02JLJ0T0 As a global manufacturer, we understand how important it is to create products and processes that don't burden our environment. Download our infographic to explore the steps we've taken as a company to be a more sustainable manufacturer: https://hubs.la/Q02JLKTL0 #sustainability #sustainabledesign #architecture #architects #architectureanddesign #designers #buildingmaterials #sustainablematerials #commercialconstruction #commercialarchitecture #greenarchitecture #sustainablearchitecture https://hubs.la/Q02JLJ0T0
