LEED & GREENGUARD CERTIFICATIONS

The GREENGUARD Certification Program TM is internationally recognized for evaluating product emissions and certifying building materials, furnishings, finishes and cleaning products and processes that meet stringent indoor air quality criteria defined by GREENGUARD Environmental Institute (GEI). Products undergo rigorous, third-party testing to determine their impact on indoor air pollution with requirements for ongoing verification. The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute recently announced that all flooring products certified to the stringent GREENGUARD Children & Schools TM standard can earn valuable LEED TM credits across multiple building rating systems. Iris U.S. has more than 70 flooring products certified that can help earn up to four (4) points under the low-emitting material credit (EQ 4.3).
