Guide to Green Products

GUIDE TO GREEN PRODUCTS

There is a multitude of differing criteria and characteristics that qualify a product to be bought, sold and marketed as GREEN. FSC, SFI, PEFC, NAHB certified, NAF and NAUF are just a few of the more well known options. The entire initiative associated with GREEN products is an environment that is ever-changing. Hood Distribution will continue to improve the information and availability of GREEN products as well as general facts about the entire initiative. Please see our “Frequently Asked Questions” section contained in this site.

Below is a detailed representation of GREEN products available throughout our organization. Again, products and information in this segment of the business evolve and change on a continual basis. Please inquire with one of our sales representatives about the availability products not contained in the outline below.
