EBOM-v4 MRc3:Purchasing - facility maintenance and renovation

roller shades/blinds

My queries: 1) Are roller shades/blinds part of the criteria for this or any related MR credits? 2) Does LEED O+M v4 consider products with low emissions under GREENGUARD? 3) Or Okeo-tex standard 100 as assessment of harmful substances in textiles? Hoping for your reply. regards, Pabs

Hi Pablo, 1) Yes, roller shades/blinds can be included here if they meet any one of the sustainability requirements, and are being installed as part of the renovation. 2) GREENGUARD Gold certification requires products meet the requirements of CDPH Standard Method v1.1 2010, which is the LEED requirement for low-emitting products. Any GREENGUARD Gold products will contribute to LEED. Any GREENGUARD certification other than Gold, will not qualify for LEED. 3) I have never heard of the Okeo-tex standard 100 assessment, and LEED does not reference this standard as compliant. It may be worth checking out LEED Interpretations to see if this can be used in lieu of GreenScreen Hazard Assessments. I hope this helps!
