MaterialsCAN Launching Today at Greenbuild

Chicago, IL, November 14, 2018-MaterialsCAN (Carbon Action Network) launches today at Greenbuild 2018. 

MaterialsCAN is a group of sustainability leaders in the built space that want to bring attention to the importance of embodied carbon. The group aims to provide those who own, lease, design, or construct spaces with education and tools to better understand the carbon footprint of their projects, specifically through measuring the embodied carbon of specified materials. 

The group includes members of the building industry that are primed to act on the prioritization of embodied carbon in building materials-Interface (flooring), Gensler (design), Skanska (construction), Armstrong (ceilings), CertainTeed (insulation) and USG (wallboard).
