Webinar: Exposing "Luxury" Vinyl Flooring's Carbon and Toxic Impacts

Exposing “luxury” vinyl flooring’s carbon and toxic impacts: A solutions-oriented webinar for purchasers, architects, designers, and developers. The prevailing perception in the building industry is that Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are the gold standard for material transparency and a proxy for environmental integrity. However, CEH’s recent supply chain analysis of vinyl flooring manufacturing in the U.S. and China uncovered gaps and underreporting in existing EPDs relating to the carbon and toxics impact of supposed “luxury” vinyl flooring. Join us for a discussion of recommendations and solutions for specifying healthier resilient flooring for your next project. Speakers: Rachael Wein Director, Built Environment Program Center for Environmental Health Leila D. Behjat Architect & Senior Researcher in Design and Practice Parsons Healthy Materials Lab, NYC Teresa McGrath Chief Research Officer Healthy Building Network Sequoyah Hunter-Cuyjet Vice President Determined by Design
