Green Star - Office Interiors v1.1

Tue 27 Jul, 2010 Rating tools

The Green Star - Office Interiors rating tool is designed for building owners, tenants and interior designers to assess the environmental impact of an interior fitout. A green fitout will include issues such as access to natural light, waste management, energy conservation, low emission paints and timber from sustainable forests.

Seven Materials Calculators have been developed to assess the environmental impacts of fitout items during their manufacture, use, and post-use phase. The items are assessed for eco preferred content, durability, the product manufacturer's environmental management system, commitment to product stewardship, and whether the product is modular and/or designed for disassembly. Emissions of volatile organic compounds from paints, carpets, adhesives and sealants and office fitout items are covered within the Indoor Environment Quality category.
