NorthClad® ACM composite panels can even assist with meeting the requirements for LEED® Certification 1 (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design).
ACM Recycle Content
Continuous Lifecycle
Our products are 100% recyclable, which keeps scraps out of landfills and helps the project qualify for LEED® Materials and Resources Credit 2 for New Construction. When the product has exceeded it’s life span and it is time for replacement, the material can be sent to various recycling facilities and scrap yards to be melted down to create new products.
Reflectivity Reduction
NorthClad® composite panels are stocked in a vast variety of colors and finishes. Many colors boast an SRI value greater than 29 as per LEED® Sustainable Sites Credit 7 (Reduction of Heat Island Effect) qualification requirements. These colors will reflect energy from the sun and reduce heat absorption, effectively minimizing the impact on microclimates and avoiding disruption of the surrounding habitat.
Local Employees
Our panels are manufactured in northwestern Washington by local workers. We are proud to promote domestic labor and provide jobs in and around the Pacific Northwest.
