LEED Certification - Designed as a working instrument, Kawneer's LEED Planning Tool guides users to specific Kawneer products and solutions that can help in achieving LEED certification goals. Kawneergreen.com brings the popular tool to life, allows users to tie specific strategies to specific products and features sections for "Potential Points" based on the recommended products/principles for each LEED category. The site also includes additional links and resources for users to learn more about LEED principles and sustainable design.
Kawneer's commitment to sustainability is evidenced in its products and its actions. In January 2008, Kawneer launched a comprehensive campaign affirming its commitment to sustainability. With its key message, "Every Day You Make a Choice. Make a Choice that Counts," Kawneer examines how everyday choices may impact the future of the environment and how building with sustainable products can make a difference in the future of the planet. From its dedication to developing products and systems that help comply with LEED standards and promote integrated, whole-building design practices, to its innovative tools and solutions, the company continues to be dedicated to sustainability.
