Whether you’re building or renovating, you’ve probably already heard the term LEED standards tossed around at least once or twice. Not sure what they are? You’re not alone. This quick guide can help.

LEED stands for Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design. It’s a green building certification program through the US Green Building Council. The idea behind these standards was to literally transform the construction industry to create a greener planet. It considers how buildings are designed and constructed as well as how entire communities are created on a global scale.

LEED certified buildings help to save resources (and money in some cases), because they’re designed with renewable energy in mind. Not every building can be LEED certified, though. Instead, there are certain prerequisites that have to be satisfied and a number of different points to be earned in certain areas to get to various levels of certification.

Should You Bother?

If you’re building a new facility or you’re having an older facility renovated, you can certainly choose to go with LEED certification. There are a number of reasons you may want to consider it. LEED certification is a mark of achievement unlike any other, and if you’re serious about a green commitment within your company, it’s something you’ll want to consider. LEED certification means that you’re going to conserve energy and resources every step of the way. You’ll be able to provide employees and customers alike with better indoor air quality thanks to your building material choices, and you’ll achieve real returns throughout the life of the structure because it costs less to operate and reduces energy and your water bills.

What is casework?
The casework services that Carroll Seating provides can either provide an initial design for the interior of any institution or remodel any institution, no matter how big or small, and no matter whether it’s a school or business. Our designers will consult with you and come to a design amenable to both parties for both aesthetic and economic concerns. Our professionals will then install your design verbatim as planned.

The Carroll Seating Advantage 
Our employees will remodel either a single room in an institution or multitudes of rooms in an institution. Unlike many other organizations who barely involve the consumer in the planning process, you will be completely involved in planning your remodel or initial interior design. 

Unlike many companies who skimp on seemingly peripheral materials in designs, such as small pieces of wood and plastic, all of our material is manufactured with utmost craftsmanship. You will not need to worry about frivolous expenditures due to small components in our designs breaking intermittently; we completely stand behind all the materials we use, no matter how big or small.

How Else We Help
While we use premium materials in order to make our designs as flawless as possible, we also have friendly and well-informed personnel to assist you with making your design look exactly as you envision it.  

Our professionals will assist in every step, ensuring you are not lost at any point along the way to your design coming to life. They will determine the most ergonomically sound design of a combination of our premium furnishing in order to give you the best product for the best price.

For Many Situations
Our professionals can assist you in designs for an array of different physical environments. More specifically, we can assist you with casework in any of the following categories (and possibly more – please ask): laboratory, healthcare, and educational. Additionally, we offer high quality architectural wood working services. 

In short, our company can assist you in any size furnishing for almost any situation. Unlike your experience would be with most other companies, we offer you the best service and products in the industry. Don’t be left behind by another corporation; try our personal service and attain ultimate satisfaction, whether you need just one room redesigned, or an entire floor redesigned!
