In the upcoming RLW® on January 31, Kris Gray of LP Building Solutions will join Heidi J. Ellsworth of RoofersCoffeeShop® to discuss how contractors interested in sustainability can make the best sustainable choices for their customers through green building products and methods. They will dive into the history of LP’s commitment to sustainability and how that core value has led to the creation of their latest environmentally friendly line of wooden building products.
As more and more home and building owners take an interest in going green, now is the time for contractors to learn about the importance and benefits of building sustainably. Building sustainably starts with the materials being used in a project and both how those materials were made and how they will impact the environment after being used. Building material manufacturers like LP have made a commitment to their sustainability efforts by investing in missions like forestry conservation and creating annual sustainability reports to keep themselves and others in the industry accountable.
This standard of care marks LP Building Solutions apart from the rest when it comes to truly giving their all to building a sustainable present and future. In their efforts to make mindfully crafted materials, LP has created their SmartSide® siding by using the wood of Aspen trees. This choice is due to the tree’s durability, properties and fast regeneration, making it an ideal wood source that will not harm the environment on a large scale. In fact, this choice has positive effects on the environment, helping offset CO2 emissions and provides homeowners with better energy savings due to its ability to regulate temperatures.
