The Cradle to Cradle Certified™ product standard considers a product according to five quality categories – material health, material reutilization, renewable energy and carbon management, water stewardship, and social fairness. Cradle to Cradle Certified™ products let the consumer know at a glance whether that product meets a project’s sustainability goals by achieving basic, bronze, silver, gold, or platinum certification. For projects seeking LEED certification, Cradle to Cradle Certified™ products can help project teams earn up to two points for Materials and Resources Credit 4. For all projects, choosing Cradle to Cradle Certification™ means products proven to minimize the use and production of unhealthy substances.
