Low-impact Materials

Low-Impact Materials is a class of construction or product materials that are selected and engineered to minimize adverse environmental and human health impacts across their life cycle—through characteristics such as low embodied energy, non-toxicity, renewability or recyclability, and reduced contributions to resource depletion and pollution—within the broader framework of sustainable design.
