Declare is a label and product database that examines the origin, contents and end-of-life options of a product to increase transparency in the built and design marketplace. The Declare Label is our industry’s version of the product declaration, combined with an emphasis on what happens to a product at the end of its life-cycle. Declare is recognized and accepted by Leed, LBC, GreenStar and WELL. BAUX Acoustic Wood Wool and BAUX Acoustic PULP are compliant to the highest level, 1 out of 3.
