What is LEED?
Originally developed in United Sates by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a voluntary system for defining what makes a building green. Green buildings efficiently use resources such as energy-efficient ICF forms, water, land, materials and energy.
The influence of building green and LEED can now be seen in all industries.“The LEED process guides designers and builders to make technically superior decisions in a manner that is environmentally responsible. By embracing this process, they are showing commitment to their clients, their profession and the world community at large. It allows them to provide the best design solution for both the owner and the environment,” says Vipul Acharya, Durisol Building Systems Inc., a leader in ICF green building materials.
