NorthClad® AL Series LEED® Building Potential

Green Building: With the NorthClad® AL Series line of products you can be assured of a beautifully finished scheme, as well as an environmentally friendly exterior. Not only do we provide you with a unique finish to your project, but you also have the piece of mind to know that our system is a green product with environmental benefits. NorthClad® panels can even assist with meeting the requirements for LEED® Certification 1 (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design).
Made From Recycled Content: The aluminum we use in our NorthClad® systems has a post consumer recycled content of 20% and secondary recycle content of over 30%. This more than helps meet the requirement of 10% or 20% recycled content for LEED® Green Building Rating System under the Materials and Resources Credit 4 for New Construction.
Reusable Material: Our products are also 100% recyclable assuring any waste or scrap can be diverted from the landfills and help qualify the project for LEED® Materials and Resources Credit 2 for New Construction. When the product life has been completed and it is time for replacement, all material can be sent to a recycling facility or metal scrap dealer for re-use.
Efficient Construction: NorthClad® AL Series panels are available in an infinite variety of finishes from our standard line of colors to custom matches in any shade. There are options for an SRI value greater than 29 as required to qualify for LEED® Sustainable Sites Credit 7 (Reduction of Heat Island Effect). These specified colors will reflect the sun’s energy and reduce heat absorption, in turn minimizing the impact on microclimates and disruption of the surrounding habitat.
Locally Fabricated: Lastly, our panels are manufactured in the great Pacific Northwest by a local workforce. We proudly promote domestic labor and provide jobs in and around the Pacific Northwest to support our local and federal economy.
