The workshop was interactive and:

  • Provided practical knowledge about the legislation, requirements, and market demand for greener construction materials;
  • Discussed green certifications (for example, BREEAM, LEED, ISO 14001, Ecolabel – European Ecological Label) for both large projects and "Do It Yourself" projects;
  • Highlighted important green design concepts such as "cradle to cradle", carbon foot printing, embodied energy and industrial symbiosis.
  • Discussed the mandate to modify materials and processes to meet new green standards, the costs involved, the Return on Investment (ROI) and the benefits to start now;
  • Introduced environmentally-friendly, alternative products for use in construction;
  • Learned how to transform a toxic product into new, viable products that meet global and EU environmental standards and qualify for inclusion in green certified buildings.
  • Included relevant case studies
  • Facilitated greater collaboration between manufacturers, solution providers, architects, engineers, project managers, and other relevant persons to create exemplary green construction projects
