CMF: Common Materials Framework

Urban Evolutions aligns with the Common Materials Framework to craft sustainable, reclaimed products for a healthier built environment.

Mindful Materials’ Common Materials Framework is the industry’s shared language for sustainable building products, developed by and for the community to bring clarity, consistency, and connection to a fragmented landscape.  

The CMF organizes sustainability data across five core impact areas.  At Urban Evolutions, these core impact areas guide our material sourcing, product development, manufacturing, finishing, as well as our company culture:  

  • Ecosystem Health 
  • Human Health 
  • Climate Health 
  • Social Health & Equity 
  • Circularity  

Learn more about the CMF and how stakeholders across the industry can take action towards a healthier built environment.  

We’re proud to support the industry’s transition to a shared language—the Common Materials Framework—and to play our part in scaling a connected, data-driven ecosystem for sustainable products. (November 2025)
