Achieving A+ ratings in the BRE Green guide
The first edition of The Green Guide series in 1996 aimed to provide a simple 'green guide' to the environmental impacts of building materials which was easy-to-use and soundly based on numerical data.
The Green Guide is part of BREEAM (BRE Environmental Assessment Method) an accredited environmental rating scheme for buildings. The Green Guide contains more than 1500 specifications used in various types of building. Since the previous edition, information on the relative environmental performance of some materials and components has altered reflecting both changes in manufacturing practices, the way materials are used in buildings, and evolving environmental knowledge.
Credits are available for the specification of generic A+ rated materials in the BRE Green Guide to Specification (4th edition).
Generic A+ ratings* (having the lowest environmental impact) for specific building types (domestic, retail, commercial, industrial, education and health) based on elemental specifications contained in the BRE Green Guide to Specification 2008 can be achieved using Cedral Roofs fibre cement slates.
*Reference should be made to the 'The Green Guide to Specification 4th Edition 2008' (published by IHS BRE Press) to determine generic A+ ratings for the specific product application.
