HPDC and Green Seal announce that Green Seal is now an approved Health Product Declarations (HPD) preparer & third-party verifier and will prepare & verify HPDs free of charge for any manufacturer that pursues Green Seal’s paint certification. HPDC is a nonprofit that manages the building industry’s leading open standard specification, the Health Product Declaration® (HPD) for manufacturers to accurately, reliably, and consistently report product contents and associated health information.
Green Seal-certified paints automatically qualify for points toward the LEED v4.1 low-emitting materials credit. With this new partnership, products now also qualify for points toward the LEED v4.1 material ingredient reporting credit, making Green Seal-certified paints the only products in the marketplace to earn both.
