PremiAL: Low-Carbon Aluminum for LEED Certification

551 Views  | 

The development of real estate projects in Thailand is increasingly focusing on sustainable "Green Building" design. Achieving a globally recognized certification such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), not only reduces long-term operational costs but also enhances corporate image, increases property value, and meets the growing market demand for energy-efficient buildings.

 

To elevate your project to meet LEED standards—ranging from Certified (40-49 points) up to the prestigious Platinum level (80 points and above)—selecting the right sustainable building materials is a critical strategy.

 

PremiAL: Low-Carbon Aluminum Engineered for LEED Success

 

PremiAL by LIXIL is a groundbreaking low-carbon aluminum innovation. Specifically, the PremiAL R100 series is manufactured using 100% recycled aluminum scrap, achieving an exceptional 97% reduction in carbon emissions compared to traditional virgin aluminum ingots.

 

 

Through a transparent and highly sustainable manufacturing process, PremiAL has acquired the internationally recognized ECO LEAF (Environmental Product Declaration - EPD) label. This certification allows our aluminum profiles to directly contribute to the LEED v4.1 scoring system, particularly in the Materials and Resources (MR) category.

 

 

How PremiAL Support Your LEED Points ?
Specifying PremiAL supports credit achievement across several Materials and Resources (MR) credits under LEED v4.1:

  • Sourcing of Raw Materials (1 point): Supports the utilization of materials with high recycled content.
  • Environmental Product Declarations - EPD (1 point): Validated by the ECO LEAF label, providing transparent environmental impact data.
  • Multi-Attribute Optimization (1 point): Utilizing materials optimized to significantly lower environmental impacts.
  • Reduction of Total Waste Material (1-2 points): Contributes to overall waste reduction initiatives (points awarded based on actual reduction volume).
  • Material Ingredient Reporting (1 point): Ensuring transparent disclosure of material compositions.
  • Material Ingredient Optimization (1 point): Utilizing materials that are free from harmful chemicals and optimized for indoor environmental quality.

 

Note: The points a project ultimately earns depend on the cost share of compliant materials relative to total project material costs, and on the number of compliant products and manufacturers required by each credit. Our team is glad to prepare the supporting documentation for your submission.

Reducing "Embodied Carbon"—which accounts for approximately 70% of total carbon emissions in the construction sector—is the industry's most pressing challenge. Choosing PremiAL not only streamlines your path to LEED certification but also demonstrates a profound commitment to driving the architectural industry toward a Zero Carbon future.
