Gamma NEO

The NEO range is thus compliant with the requirements contained in the main sustainability certification protocols such as LEED and Itaca, and is in accordance with the technical specifications contained in the Green Procurement Decree of the public administration which, in its recent review, has planned for 2014 that at least 50% of public tenders will have to contain green percentages in products for construction.

The impact of the content of the recycled material is on average a percentage of 25%, maintaining unchanged the performance in terms of thermal insulation, sound insulation and durability over time, compared to similar systems in primary aluminum.

In addition, the use of recycled material allows to reduce on average the life cycle of the product, LCA, CO2 emissions by 56% and to lower the amount of primary energy used by 48%, very important results in terms of sustainability also in production cycles.

The certification of the supply chain allows the designer and the construction company to have the concrete guarantee, attested by a third party, that the percentages of pre and post consumer recycling material correspond to what is actually declared by the gammista, in this case by Fresia Alluminio SpA. These parameters allow to obtain the credits related to MR4 for the LEED certification and B46 for the accession to the ITACA protocol. 

But that’s not all.

The NEO Range has also obtained the Environmental Product Declaration EPD® (Environment Product Declaration) , certification of international importance, issued by the Swedish Environmental Management Council, which quantifies the environmental performance of products, through universally recognised sustainability parameters.
