Disclosing Material Health Impacts
The demand for disclosing health hazards within products is equally important as environmental impacts.
The NRMCA Material Ingredient Reporting Guide encourages producers to consider various pathways to disclose health hazards within concrete mixes. In addition to presenting schemes and compliance paths, this report recommends the most practical and inexpensive pathway for establishing the necessary information for complying with green building standards.
Listed within the document, the below organizations provide ingredient certification and reporting and can be explored to find products with disclosure reports:
