RENEWED EPD CERTIFICATIONS UNDERLINE COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY
Securistyle has renewed the Environmental Product Declarations ( EPDs ) for several of its key products , underlining the brand ’ s strong commitment to sustainability .
The Sterling Lock for windows , the Parallel Plus window hinge , the Sterling Advanced Detachable Restrictor , the Sterling window hinge and the Storm Balanced window hinge have all had their certifications extended .
Globally recognised , the declarations provide environmental information on the products and the materials used to make them . This includes the environmental implications of the raw materials sourced and used ; the services used during their production , including electricity , gas and water ; and their transportation impact and how much waste they generate .
As a result , specifiers can continue to enjoy complete assurance of the products ’ environmental responsibility and meet regulatory requirements such as LEED and BREEAM – a key consideration when fitting out new buildings .
Grant Stratford , Technical Director at Securistyle , comments : “ EPDs play an important role in our commitment to providing customers with sustainable products , so we ’ re delighted to have renewed the certifications following a successful audit .
“ These new certifications mean our customers can continue to have faith that , as well as leading the market in terms of performance , our products provide outstanding sustainability .”
The recently launched Sterling Advanced Detachable Restrictor is NYCDoHaccredited and ensures safe ventilation in high-rise commercial buildings . Designed with safety and security in mind , it prevents users from opening the window past a certain distance while enabling them to let fresh air into the room .
