Products Applications Mosa Services Contact Mosa LEED Sus­tain­able build­ing cer­ti­fi­ca­tions are in­creas­ingly aimed at the total life­cy­cle of build­ings rather than in­di­vid­ual ma­te­r­ial fea­tures. A stronger con­nec­tion is also de­vel­op­ing be­tween these build­ing cer­ti­fi­ca­tions and, for ex­am­ple, Cra­dle to Cradle. » read more Lead­er­ship in En­ergy and En­vi­ron­men­tal Design LEED stands for "Lead­er­ship in En­ergy and En­vi­ron­men­tal De­sign" and this is an in­ter­na­tion­ally recog­nised cer­ti­fi­ca­tion sys­tem for the de­sign, con­struc­tion and use of green build­ings. It of­fers an in­de­pen­dent as­sess­ment of seven cri­te­ria: choice of site, use of ma­te­ri­als, en­ergy ef­fi­ciency, water man­age­ment, in­door en­vi­ron­men­tal qual­ity, in­no­va­tion and de­sign process, and re­gional priorities. De­vel­oped by the U.S. Green Build­ing Coun­cil (USGBC), of which Mosa has been a mem­ber since 2008, the LEED sys­tem has quickly grown into a glob­ally ac­cepted stan­dard from its roots in the USA. LEED of­fers build­ing own­ers and man­agers a struc­ture for the iden­ti­fi­ca­tion and im­ple­men­ta­tion of prac­ti­cal and mea­sur­able so­lu­tions for green buildings. There are var­i­ous LEED sys­tems, such as com­mer­cial in­te­ri­ors, new con­struc­tion and ren­o­va­tion of schools, health­care fa­cil­i­ties and re­tail. The LEED sys­tem is under con­stant development. LEED does not cer­tify the ma­te­ri­als them­selves; how­ever, Mosa tiles can con­tribute to achiev­ing LEED cer­ti­fi­ca­tion for a build­ing. The lat­est LEED ver­sion, LEED Ver­sion 4 in­cludes Cra­dle to Cra­dle prod­ucts. Opt­ing for Mosa’s cer­ti­fied wall and floor tiles can now yield up to two points in Ma­te­ri­als & Re­sources Credit 4, Build­ing Dis­clo­sure and Op­ti­miza­tion - Ma­te­r­ial In­gre­di­ents. Thanks to our sus­tain­able pro­duc­tion meth­ods, use of sec­ondary ma­te­ri­als (re­cy­cled con­tent) and our in­de­pen­dently ver­i­fied EPDs, there are sev­eral ways that Mosa tiles con­tribute to LEED points. » Mosa LEED V4 overview – Credit Points » more in­for­ma­tion about the LEED system » more about sus­tain­abil­ity and Cra­dle to Cradle Disclaimer Privacy statement General conditions sales Acknowledgements Contact
