Content Description

Designing with Purpose: The Sustainable Advantage of High-Pressure Laminate Surfaces, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: WI-EN-194601-0125

The green building movement has been fueled by a variety of factors, including effects on the environment and human health. This course looks closely at high-pressure laminate (HPL), which covers horizontal and vertical surfaces in many different types of commercial, institutional, and residential buildings. As part of a variety of other products, such as cabinetry, countertops, wall coverings, and furnishings, it can contribute directly to sustainable building design solutions. HPL products can be specified that meet accepted standards for minimizing or reducing environmental and health impacts. All these can be documented to assist in green building certification programs such as LEED v4.1 Building Design and Construction and Interior Design and Construction rating systems, the WELL Building Standard" version 2 (WELL v2"), and others.

Learning Objectives

  • Identify and recognize the characteristics of high-pressure laminate that contribute to favorable design and performance attributes in building interiors.
  • Investigate the independent, third-party standards that HPL products need to meet to demonstrate sustainability in terms of environmental and health impacts.
  • Assess the ways that HPL can contribute to green and sustainable building designs that seek certification from LEED v4 or v4.1, or WELL v2.
  • Specify sustainable HPL in a variety of building types and formulate appropriate selections related to specific applications.
