Earn LEED-credits with Tork

LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the most widely used green building rating system in the world.

LEED is available for various building, community and home project types, and provides a framework to create healthy, highly efficient and cost-saving green buildings. By gaining a LEED certification, your company can enhance its green image and use it to gain a competitive edge, attract and retain talent and meet your sustainability targets.

How do LEED credits work?

LEED operates using a credit system, where different aspects related to design, construction, operation and maintenance of a building will earn the building credits. As these credits are added up, a building can be awarded with LEED certification at a standard, silver, gold or platinum level.

Many Tork products and services can help your business earn LEED credits for your facilities. For example, by switching to third-party-certified tissues, you can earn up to two LEED credits, for Green Cleaning and Environmentally Preferable Purchasing. A building can also earn up to five credits under the requirements for Innovation, by implementing Tork Vision Cleaning or installing Tork PeakServe®, for example. Are you currently within the LEED Silver category with 58 LEED credits? Switching to Tork third-party-certified tissues and paper hand towels can earn you up to two credits that will achieve LEED Gold certification instead.
