Sustainability

A while back, we noticed lighting is often left off Sustainability Pledges and Product Standards. It’s an area of the design and building industry that is trailing its peers when it comes to incorporating sustainable practices into both product manufacturing and company policies and procedures. We see a future where all manufacturers implement these practices holistically, across all areas of their business. From healthier and more climate conscious products to a company that operates in a more ecologically sound, wellness-focused, and socially just manner.

Aeritage is helping lead the way for sustainable lighting. A real person vets the products on our website, ensuring they meet our baseline criteria. Brands going above and beyond are rated according to our Aeritage Product Standards, using industry leading programs as the reference point. Products are vetted according to company practices, product certifications and disclosures, and alignment with the five AIA Material Pledge Impact Areas. Everything on our website can be easily filtered and sorted so you can narrow in on a product that meets your project needs.

The path to sustainable development requires industry-wide alignment. By referencing leading building and product standards and certifications for our Aeritage Product Standards, we are aligned with the broader community, making it easier to identify products that meet your project's sustainability goals.
