Transparency

The Brock Environmental Center team is the first Living Building Challenge™ project to openly share its substantial, exhaustively researched materials database, which is in compliance with the Red List and appropriate sourcing imperatives. CBF and project partner SmithGroupJJR feel this enables the industry's collective knowledge base to move along more quickly, benefitting the desire for healthier and safer buildings for all.

Let's learn together. Access the Brock Environmental Center's materials database.
