GREEN CERTIFICATION FOR PRODUCTS

WHAT IS GREEN BUILDING MATERIALS ?

Green materials are simply understood as environmentally friendly building materials that can be recycled and decomposed. Their lifespan is often long and during use they do not cause negative impacts on the environment or the health of users throughout their life cycle.

The production of green materials has two main criteria:

  • Use less energy to produce.
  • The use process consumes less energy.

WHY SHOULD WE USE GREEN MATERIALS IN CONSTRUCTION?

OUR COMMITMENT

Green materials have recently gained significant attention, especially as both the export market for construction materials and the green building market in Vietnam are experiencing speedy growth.

With certifications such as Green Labels and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), construction material products have broader opportunities in the export market to developed countries and a higher chance of meeting some criteria in green building rating systems.

Recognizing the complexity and challenges involved in obtaining green labels and EPDs, Vilandco has developed a certification registration process tailored for construction material manufacturers and suppliers. Our aim is to simplify the process, helping businesses embrace sustainability in their products, demonstrate environmental responsibility, and gain a strategic advantage in both the domestic and global construction material markets.

EPD, (Environmental Product Declaration) is an international tool and standard used to measure and declare the environmental impact of products and services. EPD comes from a series of standards and guidelines developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), in particular ISO 14025 and ISO 14040/44 – standards for life cycle assessment and environmental product declaration.

With EPD, building material manufacturers not only ensure that their products comply with sustainability requirements, but also help customers satisfy a number of criteria in green building rating systems such as LEED, BREEAM or Green Star, thereby significantly increasing their competitiveness compared to other products on the market.

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a method of determining the environmental impact of a product, project, or process throughout its entire life cycle. Conducting LCA provides fundamental information to improve environmental performance, optimize resource use, and drive sustainable decisions and actions. For green building rating systems, LCA is an important method for helping projects meet and score points on a number of criteria.
