TruProtect Can
Contribute to LEED® Certification
United States Green Building Council developed the Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™ which is the
nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of
high performance green buildings. LEED gives building owners and operators
the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their
buildings’ performance. LEED promotes a whole-building approach to
sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and
environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy
efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
To earn certification, a building project must meet certain prerequisites
and performance benchmarks ("credits") within each category. Projects are
awarded Certified, Silver, Gold, or Platinum certification depending on the
number of credits they achieve. This comprehensive approach is the reason
LEED-certified buildings have reduced operating costs, provided for
healthier and more productive occupants, and helped conserve our natural
resources. |

Finding
solutions to problems is how TruProtect originated. They are also the same
problem solving skills that led to the development of a new product for
TruProtect. Many office buildings have dropped ceilings with tiles made of
mineral fiber or fiberglass. These tiles are porous, collect dust, have
minimal insulation and sound proofing, and make a complete mess when
installing and replacing. Surely there had to be a better product.
E nter TruProtect’s new ceiling tiles
to solve these problems. Each tile is the original TruProtect with an added
polypropylene cover that is remarkably durable and visually appealing.
Without the hassle of remodeling, an office can now add the benefits of
TruProtect. Heat and cold from the attic or plenum are stopped from
