SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RCAI (OTCBB:RCAA), a world leader in environmentally-friendly industrial chemical release agents, announced today that its Alderox® products meet the requirements set forth by the United States Green Building Council (‘USGBC’) for use in LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified construction projects and buildings. Gordon Davies, President of RCAI, stated, “Our Alderox® product line will now be able to make a significant potential contribution to helping progress the green building movement. “They meet the requirements such that their use in construction projects will count toward those projects becoming LEED certified. “We are currently working with a number of customers in the western and southeastern United States where LEED certification is a key issue and the ability to gain LEED points through the use of our products a pivotal selling point.” Mr. Davies said the green building sector is continuing to grow exponentially with more and more building professionals seeing the benefits of green building and LEED certification. “Green building practices and designs not only make an impact on public health and the environment, they also reduce operating costs, enhance building and organizational marketability, potentially increase occupant productivity and help create a sustainable community. LEED fits into this market by providing rating systems that are voluntary, consensus based, market-driven, based on accepted energy and environmental principles, and they strike a balance between established practices and emerging concepts.”
