Global GreenTag™ GreenRate™
Level A Certification for
Classic Integra Vantt
Entrance Matting

Products assessed under the Global GreenTag ^CertTM Product Certification Standard, including the GreenRate™ certification program, amongst others, are recognised by leading sustainable building rating tools, globally, for all aspects of impacts on human health, ethical labour supply and the environment.  GreenTag certification marks are trusted in the industry, because they are independently assessed certifications that are determined as healthy for use, using the best science available, with the results being peer reviewed by highly qualified, external consultant Toxicologists, providing assurance that construction materials and products are safe, efficient, and eco-friendly.

Here are some key reasons to consider GreenTag GreenRate certification:

• Health and Safety: GreenRate certified products are assessed under rigorous, scientifically backed processes and assessment criteria to assure that they are created with responsibly sourced materials, made under ethical processes and are safe to use, to provide peace of mind that designed spaces, using these products have either very low to no toxic impact on indoor environments.
• Environmental Impact:  Products certified under GreenRate, use less energy and water, and raw materials are sourced in efforts to conserve natural resources to support a more sustainable future.
• Cost Savings: Using GreenRate certified products in building projects can lower energy and water bills, offering long-term savings and potentially increasing property value.
• Enhanced User Experience: Projects built with GreenRate certified materials offer greater peace of mind for users with third party assurance that they are creating healthier environments for people to live and work in. Choosing GreenRate certified products, such as Classic’s Vantt range, enables specifiers to positively impact both the environment and the health and well-being of future occupants. This choice supports a more sustainable future for generations to come.

By specifying GreenTag GreenRate Level A certified products, for example, you’re contributing to a reduced environmental impact and promoting healthier, more sustainable living spaces. GreenRate is a multi-criteria assessment scheme, which addresses the GBCA’s Green Star® rating tools’ priority areas of concern such as toxicity, durability, water accounting, greenhouse gas accounting, material extraction, as well as social and environmental compliance.

Products that achieve a GreenRate Level A certification demonstrate a maximum commitment to low toxicity, compliance to relevant social and environmental laws in the country of operation, fit for purpose certification, availability of replacement parts, design for recycling and/or reuse and healthy VOC levels.

Classic’s Integra Vantt Entrance Matting has earned a GreenRate Level A certification under the Global GreenTag Product Certification Standard, this is a testament to its exceptional quality and adherence to these high standards. Some of Vantt’s features include;
