A better environmental alternative and upgrade to replace gypsum drywall and cement backer boards for walls, floors and countertops.

Why is GREENE-BOARD GREEN GREENE-BOARD is manufactured with patent pending proprietary process of natural mineral products including magnesium oxide and magnesium chloride. The manufacturing process for GREENE-BOARD consumes less than 50% of the energy required to make a Portland cement based product. When GREENE-BOARD is sized, excess material is saved and recycled into the future production runs. 100% of the post-industrial waste created during manufacture is recycled. GREENE-BOARD also contains a minimum of 5% post-consumer waste material. GREENE-BOARD has a natural resistance to the growth of mold and mildew, without the addition of toxic chemicals. GREENE-BOARD also contains no silica, no asbestos, no VOCs, so it is safe to install and safe for the end-user. Because of these features GREENE-BOARD contributes to USGBC LEED point for indoor air quality. GREENE-BOARD also contributes t0 USGBC LEED points for durability (lifespan) and recyclability. Because the primary components of GREENE-BOARD are all natural, it can be recycled as construction fill with no negative impact on the environment. GREENE-BOARD can also be recycled through a re- manufacturing process.

LEED ~ LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN A rating system developed by the US Green Building Council (USGBC) to assess the environmental sustainability of building designs. LEED is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. LEED promotes a whole-building approach to sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. LEED certification is third-party validation of a buildings performance. LEED certified Projects blend environmental, economic, and occupant-oriented performance. They Cost less to operate and maintain; are energy-and water-efficient; have higher lease-up rates Than conventional building in their markets; are healthier and safer for occupants; and are a Physical demonstration of the values of the organizations that own and occupy them. Contributes 4 points to the LEED program. EQ – Indoor Air Quality EQ 3.2 – No VOCs MR 4.1 – 10% of Board is recycled back into production. MR 8 – Lifetime Durability

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY More than 50% lower energy usage during production in comparison to cement based products (HARDI BACKER) No hazardous chemicals or VOCs (volatile organic compounds) No Silicates (HARDI BACKER) Low Environmental Impact: LEED points for durability and indoor environmental quality Post Industrial Waste is fully recycled during production 100% recyclable. No extra costing for special disposal (HARDI BACKER)

EASY TO INSTALL Wallboards – Easy to finish when being used as a wall board. Install with smooth side out Score and Snap – Simple utility knife can be used Easy Fastening – Conventional fasteners can be used (screws/nails/staples) Tile Backer Board - Excellent adhesion with setting materials when being used as a tile backer. Install with smooth side down Will not crumble like cement and gypsum products

MOLD AND MILDEW RESISTANT Natural mold and mildew inhibitors – Because of its natural high ph levels mold/mildew cannot grow Fungus resistant properties under ASTM D-3273 and found no evidence of fungal growth.
