Advanced Architectural Products has published new Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for its CMH systems: GreenGirt CMH Delta Adjustable, GreenGirt CMH XO, and flagship GreenGirt CMH and GreenGirt CMH Clips. These new cradle-to-grave EPDs reinforce A2P’s position at the forefront of sustainable manufacturing, advancing transparency and environmental accountability across the built environment.

In 2019, A2P became the first manufacturer to publish an EPD for continuous insulation systems. Now, as the first to publish consecutive EPDs, A2P reaffirms its long-standing commitment to measurable sustainability, performance excellence, and industry-leading innovation. These efforts drive systems that deliver 92-99 percent thermal efficiency and measurable environmental gains, including:

  • Achieving a 27% reduction in total Global Warming Potential (GWP)
  • Manufacturing with Red List-free materials to protect human and ecological health
  • Publishing Declare Labels for full transparency and accountability
  • Enabling LEED points for projects seeking sustainable green building certifications

 

A2P systems are entirely manufactured in the United States, in Hamilton, MI, with an additional warehouse in Seattle/Sumner, WA, enabling easy nationwide distribution. By continually investing in solar energy, A2P is driving sustainable manufacturing and construction, pioneering measurable improvements in lifecycle transparency for continuous insulation systems.

Building for the Future

These improvements underscore A2P’s dedication to designing innovative systems that not only meet the thermal and structural demands of modern construction but also contribute to a healthier, more sustainable future. Each system reflects a deliberate commitment to advancing high-performance building envelopes that embody innovation, structural integrity, and environmental responsibility.

Access A2P’s EPDs

You can view and download A2P’s new EPDs on the International EPD website, the EPD North America database, and on A2P’s product pages, technical library, and best practices page for environmental impact.
