Choose Green Report: Wallboard, Fiberboard, and Flooring

December 1996

This report is geared toward office environments but offers useful information to anyone who makes flooring decisions. It features a bottom-up introduction to “green” building materials, plus help on how to choose them. Green Seal makes its product recommendations and provides phone numbers of manufacturers and distributors. A graph on typical flooring prices provides interesting comparisons, but readers should keep in mind the 1996 publish date. The issue also includes side bars on building vs. renovation, progressive building codes and standards, and short case studies highlighting successful applications of green building material in workplace settings.
