    Does anyone know, apart from www.ogcbuyingsolutions.gov.uk, WRAP and the Greenguide, if there is a more user friendly and extensive range of eco friendly, high recycled content and sustainable materials for the construction industry? I work within constuction and when designs come back from architects, i often spend time trying to source alternative materials to build to BREEAM criteria and also recycled cheaper products. I have found that some recycled products are not working out cheaper. Please correct me here as i want to promote their use in my company. If anyone knows where i could find such products, i would be most grateful!

    Thanks:bigsmile:

    Keith, last time I went onto Greenpro, there was a lot of out of date info, especially with regard to contact details etc. Has this been looked into recently?

    Hi Jax

    What is useful about the Green Guide is that you can download the Eco Profiles for each product. This will enable you to assess the products based on a range of Ecological parameters, such as GWP rating (Effect on Climate Change). I attach an Eco Profile for a recycled newsprint insulation product, which has a 'better than zero carbon rating - 1m2 of installed insulation is equivalent to -1.9kg of carbon.

    I like greenspec.co.uk very much and I'm also signed up to GreenPro.

    GreenPro is now updated regularly. However, as with any database it is an ongoing project so if you look hard enough you will find some old stuff. You can always report out-of-date listings though through our helpdesk and we will investigate promptly.
