Recycled Content (1-2 points)
Materials with recycled content such that the sum of
post-consumer recycled content plus ½ of the pre-
consumer content constitutes at least 10%

Innovation in Design (ID)
(1-4 points) Credit can be achieved through any combination of
the Innovation in Design and Exemplary Performance.
Refer to individual product data sheets or check with the local sales
representative for product applications.
Note: No individual material enables a credit point to be taken within LEED because each category is dependent on the aggregate of all materials and their proportionate relationship to the total dollar
cost of all materials.
