BOLYU Contract and Cambridge Commercial Carpets have launched ecoScorecard from Viridity, Inc., a web based tool that catalogs all of their green products and evaluates each product based on their environmental characteristics for five key rating systems. Included are the United States Green Building Councils (USGBC) LEED system, GGHC (Green Guide for Healthcare) LABS 21® (Laboratories for the 21st Century) CHPS (Collaborative for High Performance Schools), and NAHB (National Association of Home Builders). ecoScorecard also checks compliance for third party certifications.
According to James Lesslie, president, Beaulieu Commercial, “ecoScorecard corresponds with our overall company environmental initiatives. We are committed to finding innovative solutions in technologies that will enhance our customers’ business experience with our selling brands. ecoScorecard is a valuable tool necessary for architects and designers to have a simplified method in selecting the best environmental carpets for their projects.”
“ecoScorecard provides accurate product documentation for inclusion in the certification submittal process and offers our customers access to the data anytime, anywhere, providing the information they need when they need it and at no charge,” adds Cathy Mansour, director of marketing.
