Allied Goes Green

Allied Building Products Corp., a distributor of residential and commercial roofing, siding, waterproofing, windows and interior/exterior building materials, has earned the nationally recognized Forest Stewardship Council’s (FSC) chain-of-custody certification (SW-COC-003086) through the Rainforest Alliance’s SmartWood program.

A non-profit organization, the FSC encourages the responsible management of the world’s forests and sets high standards to ensure forestry is practiced in an environmentally responsible, socially beneficial and economically viable way. As a chain-of-custody distributor, Allied Building Products grants its customers the option to identify and choose FSC’s certified products knowing there is a system in place to verify the sources of the wood used to manufacture the products and provides a link between responsible production and consumption.

“Allied understands the importance of sustaining the natural resources that allow us to provide so many of our most important products,” says Tim Williams, director of sales and marketing for Allied Building Products Corp. “In support of that commitment, we have invested great time and energy into making sure that we sustain the resources we utilize.”

As a certified member of FSC’s chain-of-custody program, Allied Building Products’ residential and commercial sales teams are now able to bid on projects that are seeking Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System® designation—a nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings.
