In LEED 2009 there are 100 possible base points plus an additional 6 points for Innovation in Design and 4 points for Regional Priority. Buildings can qualify for four levels of certification:

  • Certified – 40 – 49 points
  • Silver – 50 – 59 points

When bidding on a job, 3M DI-NOC can be used as competitive leverage to obtain the new required standard!
