Green Resource
Arch Aluminum & Glass has re-launched its www.ArchGreen.com informational website to reflect the latest changes to the LEED Green Building Rating System. 

The site, first launched in 2003, is designed to provide information for professionals in the architectural community working on glazing and extruded aluminum systems, says Jeff Ziesche, director of aluminum operations for the Tamarac, Fla.-based company. 

“We believe this upgraded site will continue to be a forward-looking resource for the architect and installer working on glass and extruded aluminum systems,” adds Ziesche. The newest version of www.ArchGreen.com anticipates life-cycle analysis and the release of new versions of LEED expected over the next few years. 

It also includes a revamped matrix highlighting potential LEED v. 2.2 points available by specifying Arch products, as well as helpful links, information about the company’s sustainable manufacturing processes and details about its green products. 

Arch also simultaneously re-launched www.ArchDecoGlass.com, which includes information about SumiGlass and VISUAL decorative glass products.
