What You Need to Know About LEED Presented

What You Need to Know About LEED® Presented by: Michelle Leader, LEED AP Marketing Specialist Sto Corp. Silke Niemann Marketing Coordinator Sto Corp.

Common Beliefs about LEED 4 Products contribute to LEED points through: v Recycled content v Local manufacturing locations

Truth about LEED & Sto 4= Points from Recycled Content and Manufacturing location categories 17 = Additional points that Sto products may contribute to earning 21 = Total LEED points that Sto products may contribute to earning

Agenda 4 What is LEED? 4 LEED points that can be earned using Sto products 4 Resources to help you understand LEED and sell to LEED projects

What Is LEED® ? 4 4 4 Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design A Green building rating system developed by the US Green Building Council v Focuses on environmental impact, use of resources, and occupant health US Green Building Council v National, Non Profit Organization v Developer and Adminstrator of LEED certification program

“LEED” – not “Leeds” LEED Leeds A Green Building Rating System A city in England

Very Important 4 LEED certified buildings LEED certified products 4 LEED Accredited Professional LEED Certified Person or Company 4 A product can contribute toward LEED credits A product complies with LEED credit requirements A product gives points to a LEED project

LEED® Rating Systems 4 Rating systems tailored to different types of projects v LEED NC : for New Construction and Major Renovations / Additions v LEED EB : for Existing Buildings v LEED CI : for Commercial Interiors v LEED CS : for Core and Shell v LEED H : for Homes v LEED ND : For Neighborhood Developments
