LEED points via L&M
L&M Construction Chemicals,
supplier of FGS/PermaShine, has
released a paper that details the
sustainable attributes and potential
LEED points available with an FGS/
PermaShine Polished Concrete Floor
System.
The Polished Concrete and LEED
Certifi cation paper can serve as a
reference tool for architects, contractors,
owners and facility managers who want
to build green.
The thermal mass of concrete in an
FGS/PermaShine fl oor helps save energy,
especially during periods of peak energy
usage. The FGS process also minimizes
exposure to VOCs and particulate
matter. And the process utilizes a
patented “dry-grind” installation method
that conserves water and eliminates
messy slurry disposal at landfi lls.
