Refreshed online Green Product Score tool offers customers an easier way to build "green"

National Gypsum Company recently relaunched our Green Product Score (GPS) digital tool for architects and contractors who are selecting products for sustainable, green construction projects. The GPS tool provides customized sustainable material data sheets when the user enters information about a construction project and its specified Gold Bond®, ProForm® and PermaBASE® products.

With an enhanced user interface, reformatted project reports and a responsive design, the GPS tool provides a way for customers to document credit compliance for specific green building rating systems, like LEED. The drop-down product selection functionality allows the user to customize the reports including product sustainability information such as:

  • Declare Labels
  • Environmental Product Declarations (EPD)
  • Health Product Declarations (HPD)
  • Indoor Air Quality Certifications
  • Recycled Content
  • Regional Materials

The refreshed GPS tool complements the Company’s recently launched multi-website platform that provides an enhanced user experience for architects, contractors, remodelers, distributors, homeowners and other visitors. The new digital platform includes a family of websites dedicated to National Gypsum®, Gold Bond, ProForm, PermaBASE and PURPLE brands.
