Common Questions & Quick Answers
Essential overview of GREENSL® Building Ratings, Product Eco-Labelling, and Accredited Professional credentials.
GRS rates the environmental performance of a building or development, such as a new office, an existing hotel, a school or a housing project. GLS evaluates a product or service, such as cement, tiles, paint or glass, across its life cycle. A building project may use GLS-labelled products to help earn credits, but the two certifications are assessed separately.
