Programs

Not a certification — a shared vocabulary. CMF organizes every sustainability claim into five impact areas so that teams can compare products consistently.

The most widely used green building rating system. Projects earn points across categories like materials, energy, and indoor air quality; product choices can contribute to those points.

One of the most demanding building certifications. Among other things, it asks teams to avoid a published Red List of harmful chemicals — which is why Declare labels matter here.

A rating system focused entirely on human health in buildings — air, water, light, materials, and mind. Material restrictions and low-emission products help projects meet WELL features.

A lighter, operations-focused rating from the WELL family covering cleaning policies, emergency preparedness, and air and water management — popular post-pandemic.

Certifies buildings that achieve verified zero operational and embodied carbon, including offsets for what can't be eliminated. Embodied-carbon data from products matters directly here.

Certifies facilities that divert at least 90% of waste from landfill and incineration. When a manufacturer claims 'zero waste to landfill', TRUE is the certification to ask about.
