Designers and architects are increasingly searching for manufacturers who disclose information about their products to support sustainability and transparency.
Because we are also guided by these two principles, we are pleased to announce our slatted and veneer wall panel products are Red List Approved. These products now have a Declare label indicating they follow the requirements of the Living Building Challenge (LBC).
Declare is a nutrition label for building products, designed to help specifiers quickly identify products that meet project requirements.
Depending on wood source, one of our two Declare labels cover a broad range of veneer & slat wall profiles, species, and finishes as product families.
- Profiles: Flat Veneer, Classic Slat, Fin Slat, Torus Slat, V-Rib Slat, Low Profile Mixed Slat
- Species: Any
- Finishes: Matte Clear, Premium Oil, Soft White, Smoke, Barley, Deep Brown
For a manufacturer to receive the LBC Red List Approved designation, it must disclose 99 percent of ingredients and residuals present at or above 100ppm or 0.01 percent. We have disclosed 99.68% of intentionally added ingredients since a small amount of ingredients in our standard finishes are proprietary to the finish manufacturer.
Products with a Declare label may contribute toward satisfying the Materials & Resources – Material Ingredient Reporting credit under LEED® v4.1.
We are committed to being transparent and manufacturing products that are sustainably sourced. In return, our customers can feel confident that the ingredients in our products comply with rigorous environmental and health standards.
You can find our slatted wood wall panels on the Mindful Materials database on Material Bank. We are also pleased to announce that a wide variety of our veneer & slat wood wall panels have been independently tested and certified Clean Air Gold by Intertek.
Our latest collection, UE LIVE SAWN, offers a cohesive, full product suite from one single sustainable source.
