SUSTAINABLE, HEALTHY, EARTH-FRIENDLY FLOORING PRODUCTS
• In 2010 according to the Green
Building Alliance the green building
products market is projected to be
worth $30-40 billion annually.
According to a recent NY Times article Mr. Chad Harvey, Deputy Director of Modular Building
System Association stated “ when this economic downturn ends, our industry is going to be
better positioned to increase market share than ever before,” he said. “We offer a product that
builders will be able to embrace and sell as inherently green.” He expects that more and more
modular manufacturers will switch to using lumber certified by the Forest Stewardship Council
(FSC), a sustainable forestry watchdog group.
Rick Fredrizzi, Chairman, United States Green Building Council (LEED) stated that of all things
happening in sustainable home design “Modular and off-site fabrication of homes” exites him
the most.
Recently the modular trend setter Epoch Homes announced their - Eco Home Collection
where “Our design goal was to expand upon our custom designed homes by offering some
value engineered green homes that are lower to purchase and operate”.
