LEED®
Building A Sustainable Future - Leaders in Leed
What Is Leed?
Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) promotes a holistic, “green” approach to building that focuses on sustainability. The U.S. Green Building Council recognizes performance in critical factors in human and environmental health. It addresses sustainable site development, energy savings, water efficiency, responsible materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
Our Green Legacy
Since 1947, Reading Rock has manufactured innovative, high-quality masonry products. As the need for environmental responsibility has grown, we have applied our resources to devise new ways to make our products and processes not only with the best quality, but also with what is best for our environment. Our in-house LEED Accredited Professionals (AP), LEED Green Assocaites (GA) and engineers help us stay ahead of the curve in supporting green building and helping our partners achieve LEED credits on their projects.
What We’re Doing
Many Reading Rock products contribute to the achievement of LEED credits on projects. We proudly support the development of green product innovations and are committed to developing and improving our entire product line with respect to the environment. In fact, Reading Rock was one of the first cast stone manufacturers to devote resources to products with supplementary cementitious materials (SCM).
