Sustainability

Buildings produce more than one third of our country's CO₂ emissions. These emissions are in large part a direct result of energy use. The building envelope is a key design feature to address as it typically accounts for a great deal of the overall energy use by controlling heating and cooling energy losses.

InnoVida can make a direct impact on the environment by significantly reducing CO₂ emissions and energy consumption during the life cycle of the building.

Energy Star

ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection agency created to help identify and promote energy efficient products and practices. The program delivers the technical information and tools needed by organizations and the consumer to choose the best, energy efficient solutions. InnoVida promotes the use of ENERGY STAR certified products. InnoVida Fiber Composite Products have high insulation properties and a strong structural seal, which contributes to building an ENERGY STAR qualified home.
