In the field of sustainable construction, insulating materials play a fundamental role in contributing to the creation of efficient and environmentally friendly buildings. These materials not only fulfill the traditional function of providing a thermal barrier, but are also closely aligned with sustainable construction practices and internationally recognized certifications, such as LEED and EDGE.
Within the framework of sustainable construction, the choice of ecological insulation materials, such as sheep's wool, expanded perlite, hemp, and others, has become a priority. Not only do these materials offer effective thermal performance, but they also have environmentally responsible properties. The use of these insulators contributes to reducing environmental impact and promoting a healthy indoor environment.
It should be noted that the thermal conductivity values are approximate because they depend on the manufacturer and the thermal insulation.
EDGE certification is one of the fastest and most effective ways to create efficient buildings, reduce energy, water, and material consumption, and increase property resale value. Developed by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), part of the World Bank Group, EDGE helps real estate projects lower their environmental impact, reduce operating costs, and support decarbonization efforts. With a streamlined and measurable process, EDGE has become a strategic certification for developers and investors seeking sustainability, profitability, and market differentiation.
Sustainable certifications in Mexico are gaining prominence as a key tool for companies and projects that seek to demonstrate their environmental, social and governance commitment. They are no longer limited to construction alone, but encompass complete processes, operations, products and business models.
Discover how environmental certifications, energy efficiency and sustainable buildings increase the resale value of a property and reduce its environmental impact.
