What are HPDs (Health product Declarations)?

Health Product Declarations (HPDs) are an important tool for designers and architects to specify building materials and products that are eco-friendly and low-emitting for LEED and other green building projects. HPDs were created to increase transparency and to disclosing the human and environmental health impacts of the ingredients and materials. Projects that are pursuing LEED, WELL, Living Building Challenge or other certification programs can use HPDs to report materials that lend to different credits. HPDs are an essential tool for disclosing product information to work towards a more sustainable future of building and manufacturing.
