Sustainable Construction
As the concern regarding the availability of natural resources
and living in a healthy environment increases, so has the interest
in sustainable design and construction that reduces the use of
non-renewable resources while improving a building's performance.
Flintco is at the forefront of this effort developed by the United
States Green Building Council (USGBC), which is comprised of
industry trend makers like Flintco who support environmentally
responsible building.
LEEDing the Industry
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) is the
"nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and
operation of high performance green buildings." Our 27 LEED®
Accredited Professionals have proven experience in navigating the
client and project team successfully through the LEED®
Certification process.
In order to achieve LEED® Certification, buildings must meet
stringent design and construction guidelines, with which Flintco is
very familiar having been awarded certification on many projects.
Flintco's commitment to green construction through early adoption
and ongoing education on emerging techniques and products has
resulted in buildings that are in sync with the environment as well
as the owner's needs.
Flintco is also a leading member of the ABC Green Contractor Certification Program
which involves developing a sustainable workplace environment. This
includes internal programs for recycling and education to
efficiency and sustainability policies that are setting the bar
within the construction industry
