The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED^®) Green Building Rating System is a voluntary, consensus-based standard to support and certify successful green building design, construction and operations

LEED^® is transforming the marketplace by providing a nationally recognized certification system to promote integrated, whole-building design practices in the building industry. The system is based on achieving a certain amount of points, which are allocated for design choices defined with the standard. Flooring products and installation materials can contribute to earning points in two of the five LEED^® categories. The experts at Bryan’s Flooring will help you to find the right flooring products and services that will help give your building the LEED^® score you are looking for.

LEED^® is a third-party certification program and the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. LEED^® gives building owners and operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings’ performance. LEED^® promotes a whole-building approach to sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality.

Architects, real estate professionals, facility managers, engineers, interior designers, landscape architects, construction managers, lenders and government officials all use LEED^® to help transform the built environment to sustainability. State and local governments across the country are adopting LEED^® for public-owned and publicly-funded buildings; there are LEED^® initiatives in Federal agencies, including the Departments of Defense, Agriculture, Energy, and State; and LEED^® projects are in progress in 41 different countries, including Canada, Brazil, Mexico and India.
