Green Star: 15 Points – Best Practice.

EC-32 certifies your finished product under one standard, giving you a recognised Best Practice rating that counts towards Green Star projects.

The products covered by this standard include:

Exterior products such as windows and window systems, doors and door systems, cladding systems, outdoor furniture, and more.

Interior products such as partitions, joinery, cabinetry, panel linings, flooring, panels, workstations, furniture, fit-out and finishing components, and more.

What the certification looks at:

Eco Choice Aotearoa takes a life-cycle approach to product certification, which means that your products must satisfy the following criteria:

• Responsible sourcing of materials
• Modern slavery risks in supply chains
• Hazardous substances and product emissions
• Durability and fitness for purpose
• Product stewardship and end-of-life management
• Emissions, energy, water and waste reporting

Each material in your product, such as engineered wood, glass or PVC, must also meet its own requirements under the standard’s supplementary modules.

What certification means for you:

• A Best Practice RPV result for Green Star projects
• Independent proof across the entire lifecycle of your product, not just one impact area
• Confidence in your sustainability claims and the ability to proudly display a trusted Ecolabel on your products and marketing.
