Let’s talk Vinyl Siding
CertainTeed is the leading North American manufacturer of building materials, including polymer shakes, vinyl siding, and trim products.
- They are the first siding, insulation, and ceiling manufacturer to provide their customers complete environmental transparency.
- They are the first to submit siding life cycle assessment (LCA) to BEES for third-party verification and publication. A life cycle assessment indicates a baseline for continuous improvement.
- They use recycled content in its products whenever possible
- They coordinate the operations of over 200 vinyl recycling centers nationwide to reclaim vinyl siding that has reached its end of life.
A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an analytical tool used to quantify and interpret the flows to-and-from the environment (e.g. emissions, consumption of energy, etc.) over the entire life cycle of a product, process, or service. The LCA provides a comprehensive view of the environmental aspects of the product and an accurate picture of the environmental costs/benefits or product selection.
