FAQ
What is an HPD?
An HPD, or Health Product Declaration, is a standardized report of a product’s contents and associated health information, following the HPD Open Standard.
How does the HPD contribute to LEED?
In LEED v5, HPDs contribute to the Building Product Selection and Procurement (BPSP) credit, which covers Materials across five areas. Manufacturers can see how a product aligns with the credit using the LEED v5 scoring tool in HPD Builder.
What is the Materials ToolSuite?
The HPDC Materials ToolSuite™ is three connected parts: the HPD Open Standard, HPD Builder (where manufacturers create HPDs) and the HPD Public Repository (where anyone can search published HPDs).
How does the Materials ToolSuite work with the HPD Open Standard?
The Materials ToolSuite builds upon the foundation of the HPD Open Standard, leveraging the standardized data format to enable advanced features such as PreChecks against certification programs, custom dashboards, and seamless integration with other tools via API partnerships.
