Map the Future of Sustainability for Your Company and the Industry

ASC’s sustainability initiatives are focused on providing guidance and clarity on current policies, programs tools, targets and standards. The summit programming will have sessions focused on building and construction, packaging, transportation, each of which has unique needs and value chain but all markets that use adhesives and sealants.

CONFERENCE PROGRAM

Opportunities to Increase Sustainable Materials Development in the Building and Construction Industry

While the Adhesives and Sealants industry has committed to improving sustainable materials development, the industry has not yet fully realized the adoption of lower carbon footprint offerings. Moreover, there is not a consistent answer to the question of “What is Sustainability”.
Emerging topics such as LEED v5 and focus on embodied carbon as value drivers further complicate the picture and are pressuring firms in the construction value chain to take action in order to satisfy the demands of myriad stakeholders. We have recently worked with a leading business school program to understand more clearly how to address these topics and to subsequently illustrate approaches to construction material end-users that show the importance and benefits of choosing sustainable products.
