Expanko Resilient Flooring recently announced that The Living Building Challenge has awarded a Red-List-Free Declare Label to Sereniti Rubber Flooring, the newest edition to its commercial flooring products. The Living Building Challenge, an International Living Future Institute initiative, is designed to encourage a healthy materials economy that is non-toxic, transparent, and socially equitable.
Referred to as a “nutrition label” for building products, a Declare Label lists the ingredients or materials, final assembly, life expectancy, and end of life options of a product. In order to qualify for a Declare Label, a building product must either be free of, or declare any harmful Red List chemicals.
