Manufacturer Kickstarter

Start your product life-cycle assessment journey 

Demand for product transparency is growing. Project teams are looking for product options that offer life-cycle assessment (LCA) data, environmental product declarations (EPD) and Health Product Declarations (HPD) to meet sustainability goals. Combined with the Material and Resources credits in LEED v4 and new green procurement policies, it’s becoming more urgent to close the transparency loop on products and practices. 

CAGBC helps manufacturers move towards product transparency with the Manufacturer Kickstarter,  a four-part series for organizations looking to pursue LCA and transparency documentation. 

The next Manufacturer Kickstarter runs July 11, July 25, August 8 and August 22, 2023.

Check out the latest live CAGBC events.
