SPOT, a web-based product sustainability information tool, can facilitate the selection of credible green products, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
Featuring more than 40,000 products, the SPOT database can identify products by sustainable attributes, MasterFormat product codes and building rating system credits such as LEED v4 and the WELL Building Standard. The SPOT app is available from the Apple App Store and Google Play.
The SPOT database goes beyond traditional green certification data to include a comprehensive view of a product’s attributes through expanded product listings.
The expanded listings will also include safety data, such as fire ratings and, for furniture, performance certifications and claim verifications. This data will be curated and managed by UL to give users confidence that the data is from reliable, credible sources.
