GRUPPOCONCORDE Credits MR 4 Recycled material content 10% (post-consumer + ½ pre-consumer): 1 point Recycled material content 20% (post-consumer + ½ pre-consumer): 2 points Post-consumer : Waste material from final user Pre-consumer: Industrial waste material (from a source different than the applicant)

6. GRUPPOCONCORDE Crediti MR 5 (regional material) Requirements: use of material or building products extracted, found, recycled and manufactured within 500 miles from the project location, contribute to: a minimum of 10% of the value (based on cost) of the total material used: 1 point a minimum of 20%: 2 punti

7. GRUPPOCONCORDE Credit ID 1 innovation in design “Extraordinary performances with reference to the LEED ratings” Or " innovative performances for green building with no explicit relation to the Green Building Rating System” 1 point for every innovation achieved (5 points maximum) Examples: “Ecolabel” products Our productions respect and improve the BAT ( Best available techniques) The new “thinner” porcelain tiles

8. GRUPPOCONCORDE CREDIT SS 7.1/7.2 7.1 Heat Island effect (excluding roof and coverings) 7.2 Heat Island effect (roof and coverings) Purpose: Reducing the Heat Island effect (thermal difference between urban and non urban areas) in order to minimize microclimate impact. REQUIREMENTS: a.Implement a combination of all the following strategies on 50% of the built area (including streets, tracks, courtyards and parking lots) -Solar shading (within 5 year from occupancy) - Flooring materials with a Solar reflection index (SRI) of 29 or greater. -Open grids flooring systems b. Include a 50% minimum of covered parking spaces (underground, under roof, under cover or under a building). Every roof used to solar shading of parking spaces needs to have a SRI ratio equal or greater than 29
