General LEED^® Specifications

The U.S Green Building Council (USGBC.org) has developed Commercial and Residential Green Rating Systems that are defining environmentally sustainable practices.

LEED® Green Building Rating Systems

Developed by the USGBC membership, the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating Systems are a national consensus-based, market-driven building rating system designed to accelerate the development and implementation of green building practices. In short, it is a leading-edge system for designing, constructing and certifying the world’s greenest and best buildings.

NanaWall^® LEED^® Specifications

We encourage our architectural and specification partners to review the Residential and Commercial LEED® Program Criteria.

In short, it is a leading-edge system for designing, constructing and certifying the world’s greenest and best buildings.

As a member of the U.S. Green Building Council we have identified their Commercial (LEED-NC new construction) and Residential (LEED for Homes Pilot) Green Building rating systems and credit criteria for our line of Wall Systems. Our goal is to meet or exceed the performance and manufacturing criteria set forth in LEED^® specification.
