Currently there are more than 100 systems globally, however the most popular are LEED and BREEAM. Some other well-accepted schemes include, DGNB, Green Globes, HQE and Green Star.
It is essential to understand that certification programmes are not product based, they are focused on the whole life cycle of the building. Individual products can contribute towards the credits needed to obtain the certificate.
A ‘Green’ building is one that due to its design and construction, reduces its impact on the environment, and helps to sustain our natural resources. Sherwin-Williams’ products can help a building achieve ‘Green’ credentials, such as its range of sustainable and environmentally friendly coatings for external and internal protection and aesthetics.
Sherwin-Williams specialists have developed coatings for internal walls, floors and ceilings, with low or no VOC content and no toxic or carcinogenic ingredients, and which can contribute to, and maintain, good air quality for those working there.

LEED & BREEAM
LEED
For LEED certification, a building earns points for using various strategies in its design and construction, and based on the number of points achieved, is awarded one of four ratings. The current versions being used are LEED V4 and V4.1
Credit is provided for selecting installed products that have an environmental impact assessment, up to two credits can be achieved in this area. Externally validated documents are 1½ times more valuable. Sherwin-Williams can support you with your LEED project, our protective coatings contribute towards several sections within the LEED standard.
BREEAM
Certification under the BREEAM scheme relies on third party assessments of a building’s impact on the environment, and the well-being of its occupants. Sherwin-Williams can help obtain credits for indoor air quality, and use of environmentally sustainable materials. A large number of our products in this area have independently verified EPDs.

HOW CAN SHERWIN-WILLIAMS SUPPORT YOU WITH YOUR LEED PROJECT?
Our protective coatings contribute towards the following sections within the LEED standard.
MATERIALS AND RESOURCES
Encouraging the use of products having life cycle information and environmentally, economically, and socially preferable life cycles impacts.
A critical section focuses on minimising embodied energy and other impacts associated with the extraction, processing, transport, maintenance and disposal of building materials.
Credit is provided for selecting installed products that have an environmental impact assessment, up to two credits can be achieved in this area. Externally validated documents are 1½ times more valuable.
INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL AIR QUALITY (V4.1)
Reducing concentrations of chemical contaminants that can damage air quality, human health, productivity and the environment.
At least 75% of all paints and coatings, by volume or surface area, must meet the VOC emissions criteria AND 100% must meet the VOC content criteria.
Category includes paints and coatings applied on site/or to be used on the interior of the building.
Off site and ‘non-interior’ would typically not contribute.
VOC Content Europe
• Generally in line with EC Solvent Emission Directive 2004/42/CE i.e. 1K and 2K performance coatings <500gms/l for solvent based and <140gms/l for waterbased
• Some products fall into SCAQMD Rule 1113
VOC Emissions
• California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Standard Method v1.2-2017 (OR)
• EN 16516:2018
SUSTAINABLE SITES

Join us on 12th October where Douglas P Mazeffa, our Global Sustainability Director, will explain life cycle assessment and environmental product declarations, how they relate to leading green building standards, and how project teams can consider these deliverables when assessing the impact of a project. Topics discussed included embodied carbon, benefits/limitations of environmental footprinting, and the underlying principles utilised by life cycle assessment.
Intumescent coatings are at the forefront of modern fire protection, with ongoing enhancements to the durability and efficiency of these materials lending them to being a key element in sustainable life and fire safety.

BREEAM, BUILDING RESEARCH ESTABLISHMENT (BRE) ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT METHOD
· Leading global green building rated system
· Well recognised in Europe and now used in 60 countries with over 532,000 buildings certified and 2.21 million pursuing certification
· Established in the UK in 1990 and run by BRE
· Country specific protocols exist within Europe
· Utilised on a wide range of project types from new build to retrofit
· Assessed the performance against nine categories and benchmark criteria to provide a rating
HOW CAN SHERWIN-WILLIAMS SUPPORT YOU WITH YOUR BREEAM PROJECT?
HEALTH AND WELL BEING
· HEA 02 Indoor Air Quality (potentially assist with two out of five credits)
· Set maximum emission limits of formaldehyde, TVOC, Category 1A and 1B carcinogens
· Must be externally verified by testing such as CDPH Standard Method v1.1
· Applies to products exposed to the interior so typically wall and floor coatings
MATERIALS
· MAT 02 Environmental impacts from construction products (one credit)
· To encourage availability of robust and comparable data on the impacts of construction products by rewarding the specification of products with environmental products declarations
· An EPD compliant with BREEAM is an independently verified environmental label according to the requirements of ISO 14025
